Product Description

Tired of tubing down the hill with no control or sense of direction? Turn to the Flexible Flyer PT Blaster, a speedy snow sled with a fully functional steering wheel. The PT Blaster lets you easily steer clear of moguls or dips, or steer directly into a jump if you're the adventurous type. And unlike most sleds, the PT Blaster also includes a spring-activated brake that keeps you from cruising too fast on steep hills. Recommended for ages 4 and older, the PT Blaster measures 45 by 18 by 20 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 3.6 pounds.

The best sled under 50 bucks

Review Date: December 20, 2004

Reviewer: K. Musial,

I recently bought several blow-up and plastic snow sleds to try. This one is the favorite of the whole family. While all other sleds go wherever they want, this sled has a steering wheel and indeed goes wherever you want. It also seems very durble - I am 180 lbs and rode it together with my 7 year old daughter, even jumping over snow bumps.

This steerable skidoo-like sled is a great addition to the normal arsenal of sliding equipment. The steering works very well, even at higher speeds, allowing perfect lines through trees, off jumps, around other sledders and across the hill should the slope become too steep. The side skis are long enough to distribute weight well and allow very zippy speeds -- it is hard to pass this sled in icy or hard pack conditions. The sled is also very sturdy and rugged enough to withstand not only big air and hard landings, but also the inevitable bashing into a fence or tree. I found it pretty difficult to assemble because the hard plastic was cold and very rigid, and the joints required some pounding to lock in place...but it might be easier if done inside when the plastic is warmer.

The Coolest Sled on the Hill

If you're willing to spend $60 bucks on a sled, this is the one that you want. It's fast, steers very well and has breaks. It's also going to turn heads on the sledding hill. My boy busted it out yesterday at a busy snowhill and everyone was eyeballing it. It was also the fastest thing on the hill.

I agree that it was a bit difficult to snap together (I assembled it inside), because it is made of rugged, thick plastic. But I think that that heavy duty plastic also makes it a quality product. I feel like this was a good purchase and I would definately buy this again.

My son and Grandson just love it

Purchased this for my grandson for Christmas. Both my son and grandson are having a ball on it. Some assembly required but grandpa was happy to do it.

We had a similar product bought in Germany in the seventies for our son. Until last year our 5 year old grandson was using it. Then a plastic piece broke.I found this one online and it turned out to be great.We get very little snow here,but it was alot of fun.The only thing it could use is some way to connect a pull rope ,perhaps retractable,so it will not get in the way when going downhill.It was the only sled of this kind anywhere.
