	Information About Pulling Sleds and How To Build A Sled
		Most sleds have no problem stopping slow moving, stock and lightweight tractors, but a sled will need to be weighted down more or the weight box will need to be placed in a faster gear for the faster and heavier (fully modified) tractors.
		Overall sled design, speed of the transfer box, weight transfer box weight vs. the sled chassis weight, pan size, angle of ascent for the weight transfer box, pulling chain hookup point, and pulling chain length all must be considered for best results.
		The effectiveness for a sled to successfully stop a high-speed, fully modified pulling tractor depends greatly on where the two "leg supports" (the support posts that goes from the frame down to the skid pan, also known as the "fulcrum point") are positioned on the frame.

	The Virtual Kite Zoo: Sled Kites (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Sled kites rely on wind pressure to keep the sail in shape, some not requiring spars at all, making them very cheap, and almost indestructible, except by dragging them through a convenient gorse bush after the wind dropped!
		The first completely soft kite was the Rogallo, developped in the late 40's and the 50's by Francis Rogallo, following the theory that it would be better to make an aircraft which conformed to the flow of wind around it rather than expecting the wind to conform to the aircraft (or kite).
		The ram-air sled dispenses with the longerons, replacing them by two air-inflated tubes.
