Thanks for the reply. Did not get the pair that were in a auction I worked over the weekend, ( went for $20), but they were only 5 1/2 feet long. Wondering if longer ones would be more stable and be better because of more surface area on the snow?

I have two smitty sleds. One has downhill skis the other are cross-country. The downhill are wider. Use them, they are stronger.
