for sure, it was in really bad shape when i got it, but a little paint goes a long way.

I had it out for a ride today, but the snow we got last night is really wet, so it sux. One thing i got out of the experience is that with these sleds, if you put both feet on one side, turn and lean, they can turn on a dime.

oh, and to 01MXZ800, in my mind, there's no better way to get into the sport, i got it for free, leared how to fix it, customized it a little bit, and I got a good sled now, and i spent less than $50.
