What some of our customers are saying:

Re the "Can-Am":
I would like to thank you for the Can-Am sled that I bought from you last summer. I have been using it almost daily for the last three months and have had a great time. Even in a season with no snow and challenging trails it has worked beautifully with no repairs or malfunctions. I really like the way it rides the side hills, even with a 200 pound person sitting in the bag. I have used it for racing and training and am convinced that this is the perfect sled for a one sled kennel that is serious about putting miles on the team. The Can-am is great for camping and training as well as racing anything from a thirty miler with mandatory gear, to the Iditarod.This is an excellent sled for mid and long distance racing. I am sure that I will be using this sled for many years to come. I also appreciate the craftsmanship of the sled and your companies commitment to constantly improving your sleds through rigorous field testing.
                                                                                        thanks again.

Re the "Bridgton":

The sled arrived yesterday afternoon - it's absolutely beautiful!! The truck driver was excited at delivering his first dog sled - but nothing like as excited as I was to receive it. 
It really is beautifully made - I keep running my hands over it and can't wait to get it out on the trails. I'll send some photos...
Thank you very much for all of your hard work - and for the extra trouble you went to to get it here - I really appreciate it all.

Re our bags:

I gave my wife her new purple sled bag and glove bag for Christmas. She ran out to put it on the sled right away! I had spent 20 plus years in tailored clothing working with some of the finest tailors in the industry, so I know a thing or two about quality workmanship. I looked the bag over carefully when I recieved it in the mail, and was impressed with the finish work. I know this bag will give many years of rugged service. What you do is a dying art. I can see the care and love you put into this bag. It's great to know I can buy American, and get the best quality around.
Just a side note. It was great speaking with you when I ordered the bag. I love your sense of humor, and and your willingness to make a glove bag for me, even though it wasn't standard with the sled bag I ordered. I can't wait to finish building my wife's new sled, so I can order a "custom" bag from you. I wouldn't consider putting anything else on a sled that I put my heart and soul into.
I love the logo you stitch on the bags, and display it proudly!

Re the "C-41":

The sled works just perfect, and it is so beautiful, and really fun to ride.

I was on a winter gathering for the Siberian club of Norway in December, and several mushers there asked me about the sled and where I’d got it from.

Re the "Double Driver " -   I bought three of your double sleds for my tour business in Churchill I just want to tell u how happy I am with them- everyone loves them. If you want to see the sled in action go to tripfilms.com and search Wapusk Adventures- there is a great video of my the toursleds in action. Again thank you for a great product!!!!   Dave Daley Churchill Manitoba

Re our"Junior":   The sled arrived and my husband and grand-daughter put it together last night.  It’s beautiful with outstanding craftsmanship and the break system is fabulous!!!  You did a very nice job of providing excellent instructions and it was assembled without any problems.  We absolutely love the sled!  

Our grand-daughter was so excited and she and her dog, McKinley, tested it out today.  Hailee (our 11 year old grand-daughter) said McKinley could pull it real well and they went fast.  We’re so pleased with the sled and know that it was made with loving care and we’ll treasure it always.  Thank you so much for providing us with a wonderful gift to our grand-daughter and she’s thrilled with it.  Please feel free to post our positive comments on your web site, because we highly recommend your products and service to anyone.  When we get pictures back, we’ll send you a picture of Hailee, McKinley and their new sled.  Thanks so much.  Happy New Year and best wishes to you.

Re our "Bridgton":         Thanks to you and Alex very much for the beautiful sled, it was a huge surprise on Christmas morning

and the dogs took to it without a speck of hesitation – they were hooked up and Al barely had a chance to get his feet in place before they took off.  I will certainly take some photos when we’re out next.

We managed to get out on the Double Trainer today and I absolutely loved it, makes such a difference having someone else there when the snow is so marginal. I certainly wouldn't have taken out a 12 dog team on a sled with the variable snow we currently have without an ATV back up but no need with the new sled - having someone else there to stand to the brake if there are problems increases confidence a hundredfold. Before we went out I was a bit dubious about the drag mat being down all the time but it didn't cause the problems I thought it would even in deep snow with the dogs trail breaking. The sled handles like a dream too. As ever thanks for a fantastic product and congrats to Alex on such excellent workmanship

This is a delayed "Thank you" for the wonderful sled you made us.  We bought the "Double Driver" last year, and we absolutely love everything about it.  We had so much snow out here in the west last winter, we never would hae been able to get our training in safely without it.  Most of the time, our trails were socked in with snow.  With the double driver, both Rick and I could run a large team together and survive the run, having both of us there to deal with "situations"!  We love this sled and will have it forever, so versatile and so well made.  Great job.

Thanks. The sled is beautiful!

Re the "Can-Am":   Woo hoo!  All I can say is Thank you!!!  I love the new sled :)  It rides like a dream :)  We got 7" of new snow overnight so it was perfect.  It did take a little getting used to as far as the flexiblity in the beginning...but once I got the feel of it... it rides so much smoother than the______ I usually use.  I told Ray today I felt like I was driving a Cadillac!    I'll highly recommend the sled to anyone I know...        T.L, Maine

Sled arrived today!!!!!  Looks great, went together with-out problems, can't wait to try it out!  Bag is amazing, great work
Thanks again           K.T., Utah

Re the "Double Driver":

Just wanted to write you folks and tell you how much the girls like their sled. They have been bragging about it to everyone and taking people rides. Today Jan.1, Becky, Rachael and I hooked up 12 dogs and went to Sherman and back which is 14 miles. I couldn't believe the way the sled handled. You sold us on your sleds. The next time the girls hook up a big team I will send you a picture.               S.N.,  Maine   (see picture in PhotoGallery)

Took out a 4-dog team this morning. The trails were lousy but a good time was has by all. On a fun factor scale of 1-10, the DD rates a BA- ZILLION!!!          S.H., Connecticutt

Finally, finally, we have enough snow to take our new sled out. We went for a run yesterday afternoon and it was magnificent! The sled handles beautifully, and it was a hoot to be able to travel together. We will have a wonderful winter taking trips together with all of our dogs. Thank you very much for building it for us. Larkin says to tell you that we named the sled "Lucille".

The sled finally arrived! It's beautiful. It feels good. Can't wait for tomorrow morning to hitch a team to it.   Many thanks for your beautiful work,   G.M., Canada

Thanks so much for getting the sledbag out so quickly to us.  It arrived Monday.It's a lovely quality bag and fits the sled  perfectly

                                                                   P.C, NH

ITS FANTASTIC!!!! better than we could imagine, it fits the sled absolutely perfectly, so glad we double checked the measurements. the terriers have already sat in the bag to test it out and the dogs looked as excited as we were; mr wolfe kept sniffing it over and over and he approves!  really pleased with the colours and love the little logo you sewed on it too, be pleased to give you some good advertising to anyone interested in buying a bag over here!!! make sure everyone we race with knows how good it looks!

Re Rangeley Junior:

God bless you and your husband! I cannot believe how magnificent Hannahs sled is!  I will send photos as soon as I get them.

Just a quick note to let you know I received our new Sled Bag and drag Pad.  I have to tell you the Sled Bag colors were perfect, the workmanship second to none and the enjoyment of dealing with two honest people has more than earned my repeat business.  We have 1 season behind us on our “Allagash” and its performance was flawless.  Hect, it even pulled great on its side. (Long Story).  We will be ordering the C48 shortly.  Again, Thank You!

It has arrived and it is beautiful!!!!!!!  Thank you so much.  I am so excited.  I can't wait for some snow so that I can use it.  If you would like I can send you a picture of it in use when the time comes for using it.   Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!  You have made my day.  :-))                                                     H.W.

I meant to tell you and Alex: last season was our best race season ever: third at Stratford 30, fourth at Can-Am 30 and first at the Bartlett Fun Run. It could have been the soft snow conditions that favor my big strong dogs…or it could have been my C-41!

                                                                                               C.B-S, Maine

Even though I just have one strip of slushy snow left in our front field big enough for a run, I could tell that the sled flies a lot quicker than our other one, and I can maneuver it more easily. It'll clearly give me an advantage when I only run one dog. It's great. I'm hoping that  section of snow will last the afternoon and harden up overnight, so I can try it on a firmer pack in the morning.   One more time: many thanks for your help figuring out the shipping and everything.

                                                                         N.A., Vermont

It’s beautiful!! Even the Fed Ex man was excited!  I can’t wait to get home!

"Just a quick report to let you know we had great success at the sled dog sprint festival in Wanaka New Zealand. Won our class and now feel quite comfortable behind the sled. Your braking system { flip-up drag pad/brake combo] has made a real difference and I was thrilled with it. Am now comfortable taking corners at speed knowing that control is only a foot tap away if something goes wrong. Strongly recommended your brakes to others who would listen so hope you get some new business from down under. Regards,  R.S..

"The sled arrived yesterday at 10:30 am at my office. I took it out of the crate last night like a kid unwrapping a present at Christmas. It looks great and the craftsmanship and quality has exceeded my expectation. I can't wait to use it this year .-------------- D.I., Pennsylvania

"Thank you so much for building us such a beautiful sled  {C-41, disassembled}.

we received it Wed 15th, and I put it together that night. This sled is very well put together. Alex you are a true Craftsman. Thank you both for your efforts.--R.W.

"Hi there! Just a note to let you know we got the sled bag today, just in time for Ken's birthday.  It's great!! I wouldn't fit in there, but his boys probably will.  ;o)  Thanks for your quick service." -- T. D., Maine

"Hi Lucille, Thanks for the info & THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE SLED!  It's even nicer than I expected.  I can't wait to get it in the snow.  It's getting unseasonably cool here so I'm hoping for an early & snowy winter! If you ever need to use someone as a reference for your sleds - I'll happily tell everyone about the craftsmanship I see in mine!  One thing I didn't mention, I love the brake design.  We've tried a couple of different styles & this one looks like a winner." -- K. A., Michigan
