The Art of Sledding

Step 10The Hockey Stop

A very aggressive turn can be turned into a hockey stop. By immediately turning your body perpendicular to the slope you can stop rapidly. The hand that is not creating the turn can be used to hold the sled, this will keep the sled from coming out from underneath you, and may prevent flipping. The hockey stop takes some practice.

SLEDDING IS DANGEROUS! EXERCISE CAUTION!

As stated it is just a very aggressive turn. It may take a little practice to get it right. It also helps if you hold the sled with one hand and turn with the other. This should help keep you from flipping completely over.
