I have bought this toboggan plate in mid-January for my two boys (5 and 10 years old). Since it was a long winter, he was very much used. We are all very happy with it. Both boys could slip it together. My older son is on tobogganing also standing. Even for a child alone, he is to use easily. The toboggan plate is not particularly difficult, so that our 5 year old can do it easily carried up the mountain (the wooden sled is not so). In skiing the plate was also there, as it does not unduly taking up space in the trunk. After a season of toboggan plate shows no signs of wear. The price of 15 euros I found quite adequate. Conclusion: A lot of winter fun at a fair price. Next winter we will still buy a second toboggan plate so that there is no dispute in order are "cool" vehicle more in the future.
