spark

a kick sled, or spark (kick), is the perfect mode of transportation in winter. you are very low to the ground so you don´t fall off, and you can get some amazing speeds on this thing.

Another wonderful capture. Nice contrast. You seemed to have captured the rythm to the movement of the subject.

Wonderful shot. Snow, white, light, and image contrasting all that, hard a work to move through it.

With yesterday, we can have an outline of the modes of displacement under snow, perfect. The constrcution is impeccable and I adore these pieces of cottons which fall from the sky ;)

Gorgeous scene! And and a wonderful device. I'd certainly appreciate having one of those on snowy days. Perhaps I should start importing them into Canada...

@Damon Schreiber: thank you
importing them might be a great idea. when i was a kid they were really popular, but unfortunately seem to be falling a bit out of fashion. they are great fun :-)

Looks like a lot of fun, I mean, you're traveling in 0 degree weather, might as well make it fun.

Another great B 'n W street scene ... this spark is a new concept for me, but I can see it could be fast!
