FIND YOUR BALANCE
The key to staying in control, just like on a motorcycle, is for your neutral riding position to be slightly forward over the sled and over the ball of your feet on the outer rail of each running board. Don’t hang off the handlebars, but instead be balanced over your feet and ready for the sled to move around under you and for you to move around the sled as needed, staying balanced and forward.
