Summary
Details

This book contains an informative guide to Tobogganing, exploring its interesting history, equipment, different styles and techniques, and much more. A toboggan is a simple sled which is a traditional form of transport used by the Innu and Cree of northern Canada. Tobogganing often refers to the use of a toboggan for sport and leisure, either on snow-covered slopes or specially-crafted courses, much like bobsleigh runs. This volume will appeal to toboggan enthusiasts and those with a particular interest in its history and evolution, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Contents include: Introductory , Toboggan Runs , Toboggans - Construction and Mechanical , Riding , Timing the Run , Speed and Records , etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
