About Paricon
Paricon, makers of the original Flexible Flyer sled, began making sleds in 1861 with the founding of a family business, Paris Manufacturing, in South Paris, Maine, by the great grandfather of current CEO Hank Morton. When Henry Morton started making sleds at home, he constructed them by hand and his wife decorated them. These original hand-decorated sleds have become much sought after by collectors, but the originals simply ensured each sled would be a child's prized possession.

Today, Hank and his sons, Ted and Tom, are continuing the family tradition in the sled business with Paricon. The sled line has evolved to include a wide assortment of products for winter use, including sleds, snowboards, foam sliders, inflatable tubes, wooden toboggans, and snow toys. Paricon serves customers throughout the U.S. from its distribution center, which remains in South Paris. Flexible Flyer Flexi-Tube Inflatable Snow Tube

Hammerhead Pro X Snow Sled

Hammerhead Pro X Snow Sled Review



Hammerhead Pro X Snow Sled Feature

  • Innovative sled with ergonomically designed, lightweight aluminum chassis
  • Comfortable mesh seating absorbs the ride; responsive steering system
  • Interchangeable skis let you accommodate current snow conditions
  • Supports such accessories as lights, mirrors, backrest, cargo net, and more
  • Measures 23 x 9 x 51 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 9.7 pounds; 1-year warranty
A re-invention of the classic Flexible Flyer sled, the Hammerhead blends the mood and imagination of bygone eras with modern technology, functionality, and styling. The Hammerhead sports an ergonomically designed chassis that feels like an extension of your body, almost as though your torso is gliding directly along the snow (but warmer). The result is Ferrari-class handling and Cadillac-class comfort, even on the most challenging winter surfaces. The precision-engineered aluminum frame, patented steering system, interchangeable skis, and revolutionary suspension fabric seating, meanwhile, are designed to accommodate everything from rugged terrain to novice pilots. You can even use the Hammerhead at ski areas thanks to its precise steering mechanism and topnotch suspension system.

The Hammerhead supports a myriad of cool accessories, including headlights and taillights for riding at night, mirrors for viewing others on the slope, a backrest for comfort, a cargo net, a reflector tape, and whatever else you can dream up. Sledders can buy many of the accessories from CherryMax Sleds--the manufacturer of the Hammerhead--or they can use bike components, which snap easily to the Hammerhead's standard tube size. Perhaps best of all, the Hammerhead weighs less than 10 pounds, so you can almost toss it back up the hill for the next ride. Other details include stunning machine-age styling guaranteed to appeal to modern consumers; a number of safety features, including ergonomic mesh seating designed to absorb the ride; and the ability to customize your sled with different ski rails depending on the snow conditions. The Hammerhead measures 23 by 9 by 51 inches (W x H x D), weighs 9.7 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty.

About Hammerhead Sleds
Hammerhead Sleds was founded in 2002 with the goal of re-creating the excitement evoked by sledding a century ago, when the Flexible Flyer was first marketed. To attract new sledders and re-connect with old ones, the company took the challenge of bringing an ancient technology up to date using new-age materials, manufacturing techniques, and user experiences. After three prototype versions, multiple patent applications, many test hours, and intense industrial design work, the company unveiled the Hammerhead, the company's flagship sled. At home in both the backyard and the ski slope, the Hammerhead looks and performs nothing like the sleds of the past, with attractive and comfortable ergonomic mesh seating, a lightweight aluminum frame, a responsive control system, and custom carving skis. The company's long-range plan is to bring sledding to the forefront of modern winter sports, with such sponsored activities as team riders and events, slope side venues, and sled races. Hammerhead Sleds is based in Vermont.

21st Century Snow Sled. The Hammerhead is a re-invention of the classic Flexible Flyer. It captures the mood and imagination of a sledding era long gone by with new technology, functionality and styling. Sometimes called the "Ferrari on snow", this sled is capable of mountain riding with precise steering and control. The sled appeals to a broad consumer as kids love its coolness, adults are glad to finally have something to sled on other than plastic, and grandparents recognize it, appealing to both nostalgia and the “new luxury” desire for superior design (something they once did with their family). The consumer is stretched for time, and seeking activities that can be enjoyed close to home with the family. The Hammerhead sled is the consummate recreation simplifier. It simply takes advantage of a century-old legacy of sledding. Hammerhead features a number of innovations and design features which set it apart from all other sleds available to consumers today: Stunning “machine-age” styling that will appeal to the target customer and create the strong urge to buy; Safety in riding position, design features, controllability, accessories, and education; Performance features that include a precise steering mechanism and suspension, allowing for use at ski areas; Lightweight design, stemming from the use of modern materials and construction; Ability to customize, including swapping ski rails for different snow conditions; A wide range of accessories (off-shelf and proprietary) such as helmets, race kit, mountable lights, custom badging, safety leash, and cargo net.
