And that’s why my kids have the simplest plastic models that are easy to turn using body movements or braking with hands – or, in the worst case, to roll oneself off into snow (our sledding hill is in woods, so you must be able to dodge a 10-metre pine or two if necessary).
Those high ones are NOT suitable for downhill sledding AT ALL, in my opinion! A friend of mine had bot her tendons cut one day by someone running into her with a metal sledge like this. She was on sick leave from college for half a year because of that.
That “sinking” feeling, when you need to stop or slow down really, really quick. Boats, PWCs, Jet skis, snow skis, sleds, cars on ice, anything with out braking ability. The driver, the passengers, or even the innocent bystanders that can see the disaster that is about to happen. Dean’s expression is the visual face of that feeling.
