Tubing and Sledding
T
ubing is a great dinter activity; it doesn’t require much expensive special
equipment or skills, you don’t need an expensive lift ticket and you don’t even need
a big hill to have a good time. Young and older children can participate and have fun.
However, tubing and sled-
ding don’t come without risk,
as you would expect when
speeding down an icy or
snowy hill. According to the
UPMC Health Beat, 30 per-
cent of children who are hos-
pitalized from sledding inju-
ries suffered significant head
injuries; 10 percent of those
children suffered a perma-
nent disability. Every year,
more than 20,000 teenagers
and children go to the emer-
gency room.
But there’s no reason to not
go have a great time tubing.
Many cities have designated
parks or tubing areas; some of
these are free, while others
have an entry fee. Some win-
ter parks actually include the
sled or tube in the cost of
entry, so you don’t have to
worry about bringing your
own. If you don’t go to a spe-
cifically designated sledding
area, make sure you’re on
public property and are sled-
ding in good terrain.
To have a fun, safe day on
the hill, follow these simple
rules from UPMC:
• Use a sled, disc or tube
that’s in good condition. Don’t
use lunch trays or cardboard
boxes.
• Wear a helmet.
• Choose a hill specifically
designated for sledding and
tubing that has a long, flat
area at the bottom that allows

sledders to gradually come to
a stop. The hill should be
clear of trees, bumps, rocks,
poles and other obstacles; do
not build an artificial bump
either. A bump that causes
sledders to go airborne can
seem fun, but landing can
hurt.
• Sit facing forward on the
sled; this can reduce the
chance of head injury.
• Walk up the side of the
hill, not up the middle where
sledders are coming down.
Injuries happen when sled-
ders and tubers collide on the
way down with people walk-
ing up.
• As with any outdoor win-
ter activities, tubers and sled-
ders should dress appropri-
ately for the weather as well.
Children may be less likely to
mention if they’re getting
cold, so check in and make
sure kids aren’t experiencing
any symptoms of frostbite.
