Backcountry.com (Fall 2008)

Dust the neighbor kids on your local sledding hill with the CherryMax Hammerhead Sled. Faster, lighter, and better handling than a plastic sled, the Hammerhead is designed for serious winter fun. An aluminum frame supports mesh seating that'll give you a comfortable ride over bumps, ruts, and jumps. You can ride the Hammerhead sitting down and steering with your feet or laying head-first and steering with your hands. The Hammerhead's rear skis can be changed out with optional Powder Skis for better performance in deeper snow. This ride can be customized with lights, mirrors, or any other accessory you can think of. *For kids 10 and up and adults to 180lb.

A bobsled experience

Rating:*****

The Hammer Head was a great sled for bombing the hills. I really thought it would have a hard time on the deeper snow, but it glided real well over snow several inches deep. Upon first looking at the sled I unfairly judged it as a heavy beast, but to my delight and surprise the sled is very light and very easy to carry. This doesn't mean it feels flimsy or cheap at all, on the contrary you realize how well its built when you sit on it. I had no problem carrying it a couple of hundred yards to the sledding hill.

Killer on your Hill!

Rating:****

This Bad boy cuts through Pow like a hot knife through butter! If you can find the right hill with plenty of pow, your in business! I took this up in to the Wasatch this last December and we had about 10 to 12 fresh inches to just carve. I liked to ride facing forward with goggles and a mask. Tows well behind a snowmobile, but BE CAREFUL!, and don't be afraid to let go.

if you are over six feet tall wear knee pads the bar goes right across your knees and every time you hit a bump it kills just as a warning ps still a great sled really fast and fun turns on a dime also has powder runners that you can put on very fun

Awsome Sled

Rating:*****

This is the envy of the hill, everyone will want to try it. Your child will feel like the king! Sets the record in distance every time. The coolest thing is you can turn around and head back to the base of the hill for less walking if your not looking for distance. Thanks!

I want one under my tree

Rating:*****

Santa, if your out there please bring me one of these sleds. It's all I want for Xmas. I tryed one last year at the sled races and now I'm hooked. It's the most fun I have had since I was a kid. Sure beats a WeWe for getting fresh air and exersize.

cherry max hammerhead sled

Rating:*****

The cherrymax hammerhead sled saves your ass literally. after hours of sledding and everyone else is whipping out the icy hot, your still rocking. it may cost you a half months rent but its totally worth it.

Yep

Rating:*****

I was waiting for this sled, now I'm waiting for the snow (Vermont). The quality is amazing. I did get one day in earlier this month and I was showing some big teeth. Thank you Hammerhead!

Light and Fast

Rating:*****

If there's a better sled I don't know about it. This one is light, fast and steers remarkably well. At nearly $300 it's expensive but like most things- you get what you pay for.

New sleds

Rating:*****

The Hammerhead turns on a dime. It's also very comfortable in the bumps. I bought one last season and believe me, this will be the last sled you'll need for many years.

very nice

Rating:*****

looking for a good time? here it is. Highly recommended. Maybe get a helmet while you are at it... you know, just in case things get a little crazy.

Negative Reviews:

Over Priced and Poor Quality

Rating:*

The Rails keep coming off. I let my little Sister try mine and the rails came off right as she was trying to avoid hitting these kids she ended up breaking her wrist. The scam is they sell you garbage and tell you that you need this and that if you want it to be safe and even work! Unless you plan on going in a straight line this product sucks. Your better off going out and buy a lifetimes supply of cheap sleds. They'll work just as good!
