Snow Shorts solve age-old dilemma of how to get your sled uphill

Share

(Newser) – Good news for winter wonderland lovers who think it's such a drag to have to haul one's sled back up the hill after every run: Show Shorts cater to the (relatively) lazy man by offering a sled that attaches directly to your butt via a pair of shorts that fit over your snowsuit, reports the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
