The Mountain Boggan 4-Foot Toboggan is a true classic toboggan, made by hand with only the best materials. The steam-bent planks are knot-free, flexible basswood, with hand-carved willow crosspieces. The curl at the front is big enough to accommodate any adult, and the rope is extra-long. The toboggan also features stainless steel screws and genuine leather grommets with a marine-grade finish that gracefully weathers the elements. A child's or family name can be engraved on the toboggan with the personalization option (10-character limit). Lettering is 2" tall and is placed on a plaque that is mounted to the front of the toboggan. The toboggan's dimensions are 48L x 17.5W x 16H inches.

Lug Factor
An important aspect to consider when shopping for the right sled, lug factor refers to the amount of effort required to lug the sled back to the top of the hill for the next ride.
- Easy
These sleds have a negligible weight and are easily pulled behind the rider on the journey to the top.
- Moderate
Sleds with moderate lug factor are middleweight sleds that require some light effort to pull or carry up the hill.
- Heavy
Heavy lug factor means the sled will require some effort to be pulled up the hill. Parents or supervisors of younger sledders should be prepared to assist with lugging these sleds after a few rides.
Control Level
Control level refers to a sled's steering and braking capabilities. Some sleds have none, one, or both. Though virtually all sleds can be controlled by shifting the body's weight from side to side, steering and breaking mechanisms offer greater control and safety.
- Low
Low-control sleds offer a fun, freewheeling ride with little or no steering mechanism. These sleds are intended for use in open areas free from obstacles like trees and fences.
- Medium
Medium-control sleds offer steering and/or braking mechanisms that give the rider some control over directional movement and speed. These sleds are great for backyards and city parks.
- High
Sleds with high control levels feature sophisticated steering and/or braking mechanisms for precise direction and speed control. These sleds are ideal for high-traffic terrain or hills with obstacles.
