My name is Georgios, I am Greek and I come from a skiing nation. Okay, thatâs a joke đ, but I like to go for skiing each winter.
Most of us are married with children and/or have lots of friends with whom we like to play in the snow. Myself I have a son of whom I am proud and very happy to be on the road with him.
Winter sports with all the options such as skiing or sledding is one of my annual highlight besides many other like water sports.
The challenge
User limitation
Sledding, however, has its limitations. Until my son was 10 years old, we (child, mon and dad) could ride together on a wooden sled or my son drove with the snow bob ALONE.
Due to the steady growth of our son and the increasing weight of the dad, the number of driver was limited to the combinations: child/dad - child/mom - dad/mom. Someone always had to WATCH or to WAIT !!! AND some has MORE than ONE Child
Transportation
The transport possibilities of a wooden sled or snow bob set us limits regarding their sizes and we wanted to go on skiing vacations with a small car. But even if you have a big car â the limits are always given and the question was: What do we leave at home?
Snow limitation
Also the different snow properties were a challenge! Sledding in soft, fresh or deep snow was only possible with a snow bob and this again ALONE. Or sitting on a wooden sledge and the other push downhill â Downhill??? In powder snow and wet snow, the same applies. This FUN-factor doesnât take long and doesnât fit to community and my expectations!
Sled size
With the snow bob (there is none for adults and if â They are to BIG) you can only drive if you have a certain size and certain weight. Due to the weight Dad was excluded! The wooden sledge have also their limits. You can load the large ones only with max. 120kg. How about a family with 2 or more kids?
Summary
You have more than one kid
The snow is too soft or too deep
The transport is a challenge
The user exceed a specific size and weight â like Dad
The solution
ARCHI-medes
A sled for all kind of communities â families, friends, colleagues, crazy drivers, stuntmans. You can use ARCHI-medes alone or up to 3 people with a load
Up to 500kg load capacity Or up to 3 persons or more if you can. Itâs for big or small persons Itâs for lightweight or heavyweight persons With a length of 165cm you have enough place to have FUN with all of your friends or family members
Any snow condition
Use ARCHI-medes in any snow condition (the snow surface should be closed) Due to its buoyancy ARCHI-medes just glide over powder snow, wet snow, deep snow, fresh snow, any snow đ BUT take care useable only on snow!
Rollable or Foldable
You can roll, you can fold â itâs up to you and your available place you have! ARCHI-medes comes as a roll-up sledge to a length of 65cm and diameter of 20cm and thus fits in any trunk even a small car such as Fiat 500 or Toyota Aygo OR you fold the sledge once and this does fit everywhere!
Inflatable
Based on the fact that we are talking about an inflatable and durable sledge, you have to pump up ARCHI-medes. I have achieved to have ARCHI-medes ready in 90sec for sledding đ Are you faster? Donât forget the pump!
Summary
The sled with the highest load capacity with up to 500kg on the market
The sled for up to three persons (try to place more đ , up to a total weight of 500kg)
The sled for all snow conditions - even deep snow!
