Stuff We Want: Slippery Racer Downhill Xtreme Toboggan, for Grown-Ups Who Still Call Shotgun on the Sled

Let's be honest. You don't want to go sledding "for the kids." You want to go sledding because the last time you did it you were nine, and you haven't felt that alive since.

Good news: nobody at the top of the hill is checking ID.

Meet the Slippery Racer Downhill Xtreme Toboggan. It's a long, red, flexible plastic sled, about 48 inches from nose to tail per the listing, and it's built for one or two riders. So yes, you can bring a passenger. Choose wisely. This is how friendships end.

The listing says it's made from heavy-duty, slick-coated plastic, and it's treated with something called IceVex, a cold-resistant coating meant for even the coldest days. Translation: it's designed to keep sliding when your face has stopped working.

There are two sets of reinforced handles, so the person in back has something to grab other than your jacket and your last nerve. A built-in pull rope handles the trip back up the hill, which, let's face it, is the part that's actually cardio.

It weighs about 3 pounds, so it's easy to carry. Slippery Racer lists a 150-pound max weight, so check that before you and your buddy pile on and turn it into a snow plow.

Who it's for: families with a good hill nearby, college roommates who just saw their first real snow, and the adult who "only came to watch" and is now on run number fourteen.

Skip it if you live somewhere it never snows, you prefer a steerable sled, or you need it to haul more than 150 pounds of people.

The verdict: hand-picked for snow days. It's simple, it's fast-looking, and it turns any decent hill into the best afternoon of your winter.
