Since this will be my first year in the sport/leisure activity/hopefully occasionally pucker inducing world of sledding, I'm starting with almost nothing (except a full compliment of excellent winter clothing as I like to hike and camp year 'round). So, my must haves are a new sled with some options, a trailer to haul said sled, self recovery tools and a snowmobile helmet with heated visor or heated goggles that will fit my motorcycle helmet (definitely looking for opinions on MC helmet versus sled-specific helmet). Some possibilities are bits for the trailer (fuel cans etc.), a wall tent with stove, a toboggan, various shiny things that I will undoubtedly be attracted to like a crow to glittery rock, maybe some T shirts and/or sweatshirts and a new ball cap. I also want to talk to as many people as I can about where to ride, formal lessons, hard lessons they learned and any advice they/you all have and a club or clubs to join. Finally, I'll keep an open mind on other gear/equipment I come across......and of course I would be up for $2 beer but I'm not holding my breath.

For what it's worth, I have a sled helmet, a dirt helmet and a street helmet. They are all similar style but for the snow I appreciate lots of room for balaclava and breathing room around my face and must be light, for the dirt, a little tighter and venting around my head and light weight and for the road it is heavier but must be quiet and tighter fit around my goggles.

Sweat the most sledding and this causes fogging of the goggles so that is most important to think about.

This is why my bike still has wheels on it. I can get over the kit price but that is just the start of it.
