Pelican Shops End the Sled Shortage of 2010

Online, March 8, 2010 (Newswire.com) - This winter has seen its fair share of snow, and then some more. 2010 has already been dubbed the best sledding in over ten years. Kids all over the tri-state area have been swarming the powder-covered hills for endless riding. As the snow keeps coming the high demand for sleds has left almost every store in New Jersey at a sold-out status.

If you don't already own a sled you will have found it more than difficult to find one in the last few weeks. Even large retailers like Target and Wal-Mart have had to turn down sled-craving costumers. Phones everywhere have been ringing off the hook in search for someone with a sled to sell.

Fortunately, Pelican Ski Shop has the answer. They have recently gone to Erie, Pennsylvania and loaded up a trailer full of sleds to bring back home. The great sled shortage of 2010 has officially been put to an end with thousands of sleds filling all five Pelican locations. To find the Pelican in your area you can visit their website at PelicanSki.com.

The oversized shipment consists of several different types of sleds, as Mr. Pelican was sure to collect some for all types of riders. The standard toboggan sled now comes in several different variations like the Deluxe Wooden Toboggan and the Infant-Boggan. Speed sledders can chose from Snow Sprints, Racer sleds and the specially designed Levitator-a 56-inch tunnel-hull racing sled. Younger children love the Snow Train sleds that they can link together and ride down the hill as a group. Some other favorites are the 36-inch Mega Saucer for dizzy spin sledding, and of course hundreds of blow-up inner tubes for cushion comfort riding.

Aside from sleds, Pelican has all other snow-activity necessities, like snowball throwers and Free-Ride backyard snowboards. The ski shop also carries different types of snowshoes.

The joy of sled riding isn't just for kids, as some might think. Teenagers and adults have been known to join in the fun on a snowy day and enjoy themselves just as much. As everyone's favorite past time, sledding is the carefree way to let out your inner child. And how could anyone resist with all this fresh snow!
