The best getaway from the enemy.

Multi-purpose shield

Now he just needs some non-chloric, silicon-based kitchen lubricant.

It may be smooth but I think he messed up with the perfectly round design. The curve in the front is much more steeper than the curve in the back. I would call it more of an egg shape.

Either come back with your shield or on it !

There are many types of shields, as in the Scutum for the Roman Legions and the kite shield of the Normans. Would this be the famous Snow Shield?

Clark Griswold’s saucer sled!

I bet Captain America never did that.

that last line reminds me of Jon Lovitz’s liar character on Saturday Night Live…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hV85E2S-Idw

Hey, Rod! Visit the guys at BC. they spent all last week skiing. . .or falling. . .

Anyone ever use ski wax on a snow saucer? Yippeeeeee!

Hope the shield is thick enough to protect Rod’s behind!

I preferred the steerable runner sled. Face first into danger, pretending I could really steer.

Whatever floats your boat… or slides your sled.

Rod has his moments. Not many, but a few.

With any luck at all, the enemy is on the uphill side.

Friction is the enemy.

I remember when Flying Saucer Sleds came out. Worked better in less snow, but were less steerable than a toboggan. (on the other hand, ½ the time you revolved before you hit anything, so you didn’t see it coming.)

Rod wasn’t concerned about enemies it was only a manly excuse to get the blacksmith to make his a sled

That is what Capt America does on weekends in the winter. Why not.

So versatile…..

Note: I’m actually Comicfan, but i accidentally logged off, and lo, here i am.

GOTT MIT POMMES!

Rodney knew he paid too much for the shield, but, given the alternate use it was good for, he decided to let it slide.

My brother and I used to tow them with our snowmobiles, it was a blast!
