Man… the speed isn’t the sketchy part, it’s the likelihood of getting run the fuck over… Or having the tow vehicle slam on it’s brakes.

^ Exactly. It would take so little at that speed to slide out into oncoming traffic.

At first I was thinking, “hell yeah I’d do that”… then after they blew past the first car, I quickly rescinded that thought. If the roads were totally covered I’d consider it on a snowboard, because I’d be in control.

I doubt it. Usually it’s pretty apparent.

What about the tube contacting the asphalt? I am surprised the asphalt didn’t tear the tube to pieces.

Even if you were on a snowboard, you’d have to react STUPID fast in order to not hit that car if it slammed on the brakes.

Those people have a death wish.

edit: around the 2 minute mark until the end, it looks sped up…joe might be right on that.

Back in 2004(?) we got dmoffitt and I got aaronwilliams upto 55+ on a sled behind an Expedition on a major road in Greece during a snow storm. But he was also wearing full leathers, helmet, etc just in case (and there was zero traffic)… granted we also rode a couch being dragged to Wegmans that night.

I’m with Newman on this one. It didn’t look so scary until that first car flew past, then I was like WTF.
