Barstool Sled Power Rankings
I don’t think you can ever outgrow sledding. The only difference is that the falls take a bigger toll when you’re older and you start adding alcohol into the mix. But anyone who says that they don’t find sliding down a hill fun at any point in their life is either a liar or a horrifically awful person. So in honor of the blizzard and everlasting immaturity, here are the Barstool sled power rankings.
#5 – Poor Person Plastic Sheet
If you use one of these, you’re poor. It’s a sheet of plastic. You can literally feel the snowflakes on your asshole when you’re going down the mountain. They cost like $0.99 and you see them strewn throughout low income neighborhoods everywhere. If you use one of these, chances are that when you go home it’s just like that old Campbell’s Soup commercial where they pass around one bowl of soup between like twelve people. In a pinch they aren’t bad, but the majority of sledders who have these get welfare checks.
#4 – Saucer
Saucer has a little speed in her, and it’s OK for jumps, but the downside is that it spins you around like an idiot the whole way down the hill. And if you get caught facing up the hill while you’re going down, there’s a good chance to might find a tree or murder a toddler. The big debate is whether you sit on your ass with your knees up, or put your legs underneath you and sit on your feet. Obviously gotta go with knees up for guys, legs underneath for girls. If you’re a guy and sit on you’re feet, you love cock.
#3 – Ice Skate Sled
The good thing about this sled is that it’s built for speed. With the correct weight distribution you can fucking fly. But the bad thing is that it’s also deadly. It has steel blades on it. If the terrain is groomed you’re good. But if you hit some turbulence and things start to go wrong, you could end up with metal edges in bad spots. Fact: 87% of sledding-related stitches are caused by these. I made that up but it’s gotta be true. Still a quality ride though.
#2 – Toboggan
The toboggan is nice because you can get ass to dick with a bunch of people on it. It’s the party sled. Built for comfortable cruising. The best play with a toboggan is to go guy/girl/guy/girl. Basically like an orgy while you’re sliding down the hill. Got a girl with her arms around you, you got your arms around another girl, it’s great. Then at the bottom you pretend you fall and cop a feel over some snow pants. You definitely can’t go wrong with a toboggan and that’s why it’s coming in hot at #2.
#1 – Tube
The tube is the undeniable king of sledding. Some might say it’s technically not a sled, but that doesn’t matter. It’s the best thing to slide down a hill on. It has it all – comfort; speed; ability to hit jumps; that nice buoyancy that can’t be found in any of the other choices. It handles all terrains, all the time, anywhere. Pretty much if your parents loved you as a kid, they bought you a tube. Now like the saucer, there’s somewhat of a debate on whether it’s better to go down on your stomach or on your ass. Look I don’t want to generalize here, but if you go down on your ass then you’re a pussy, straight up. Face-first all day, every day. When you take that sucker off a fat jump, right when you peak in the air and right before your super bouncy landing, you experience the pinnacle of sledding. It doesn’t get any fucking better than the tube.
Dishonorable Mentions:
Canoe:
These things don’t go fast, don’t do jumps, and break almost immediately. Better to sled on your bare ass.
Any Variation Of This Thing:
These sleds are the product of toy companies getting greedy. Probably the worst invention ever. They tip over immediately, they’re slow as fuck…basically they’re for retards who are trying way to hard to look cool. If you use one I hate you and always will.
Most importantly, have fun out there guys!









GT’s have to be in the top 3 without a doubt..
I’d ride that chick down a hill.
you would go down in a toboggan over one of those canoes? i guess since you weigh about 93 pounds presently, you probably whipped down in just about anything at a young age you little fruit cake
3 person Flexible Flyer. The Lambo of snow toys, panty dropper.
Poor Person Plastic Sheet ranks right around 87th on this list….fucking things were useless, always curling up on ya, impossible to stay on and you KNOW all the other kids were laughing at the kid who showed up with one of these!!!
1. snurfer
plastic sheets are fast as hell and it was an accident if you had one, sounds like the ghetto to me
I wonder if Renee ever used to ride Pres’ nose down a hill…? Extra Stable.
“The toboggan is nice because you can get ass to dick with a bunch of people on it.” You hanging around with Neil?
why would the best play on a toboggan involve another guy?
the fact GT isnt 1 or 1a on this list makes me think you havnt even been near a snow hill
I’d be that smokeshows sled if you know what I mean
jmacfag, you wax the plastic canoe sleds and they go fast.
i was on some real poor people shit sometimes….trash can lid inside a garbage bag. say what you want, but that thing could fucking cruise.
JMac- You’re from Natick. South St in Sherborn? Best sledding in Eastern MA
JMac definitely sits on his feet while he rides down the saucer when he goes sledding with his boyfriend.
Anybody who grows up on a farm in Saskatchewan, Canada owns a snowmobile and a GT.. You make ramps and shit and then tie the GT to the snowmobile.. Best winter activities ever.
more proof:”The toboggan is nice because you can get ass to dick with a bunch of people on it”
All day every day this is #1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbksh0tW45g
Problem with the tube is they don’t make them for my weight limit anymore. Anyone know where to find one for 225 lb fat pieces of shit? Not much says pre-diabetes more than popping a tube.
Jmac you’re a fucking moron, #1 isn’t poor person plastic, thats a “crazy carpet” muthafucka.
The most dangerous sliding toy ever invented, if you want your kids to kill themselves hitting a tree going backwards, buy one
so you hate the chick on the sled in the pic you posted? nice work queer
What in the hell is going on in that picture? Luckiest sled on earth.
Bravo JMac, A+
all wrong jmac, canoe is number 1 by far speed and control plastic sheet is fast if utilized correctly
I would have sexual intercourse with the girl in that picture
I think Saucer is drastically underrated here. The awesome thing is that a saucer works great on all terrains and never pops…its fuckin’ durable. Nothing worse than your innertube popping half way through the first run of the day. Total party killer. Gotta call mom to come pick you up, fuckin blows.
How can you not mention the new thin sleds that have hard plastic on the bottom,strong foam tops and handles? The ones you can run and jump on face first and fly. Best sleds hands down.
Speaking of winter sports this is what happens when you mix hockey and Mississippi. http://aidanfromworcester.com/2013/02/08/mississippi-vs-alabama-how-hockey-could-become-popular-in-the-south-nba-more-women-than-wnba/
First rate blog. One of the better barstool posts in a while. Well done, JMac.
I bet if you apply a little non-nutritive food varnish to the bottom of that saucer it’d really fly.
Long plastic canoe style all day long, you just gotta wax the fuck out of the bottom of it. Might not matter for ElPres, what with the nose drag and all.
Tobaggan is by far the best. Boy girl boy girl cop a feel after you crash can’t be beat.
