Hey Aaron! Sorry for the delayed reply, but Dubblaron here! I'm an Aaron as well, so my handle is a play on our name. 1st - super flattered and stoked that you mentioned me and talked about this setup. The delay in my response is due to my first big winter endeavor at the Adirondack Winter Mountaineering School along with a few long weekends out on my own with (some my sled setup). Can't thank you enough for all of the knowledge you share, as it became invaluable at school and in the field. My Paris sled tracked ok and took a lot of wear & tear from the icy conditions out here this year. I saw you had issues with skis in Antarctica........so I took a note from my ice fishing sled (Shappell Jet Sled). I ordered a set of UHDP runners (Shappell calls them "Wear Bars") and installed them on the bottom of the Paris expedition sled - tracks really well in snow now and the runners take all of the wear from ice, roots, & rocks. If anyone is interested in this method - I used Shappell's SWB2 kit which is they're longest runners (kit comes with 3 runners, I used 2; but might experiment with a 3rd). All other ice fishing manufacturers have these, shop around. Well worth the $45.00. Next step is to make my own sled bag with our new Sailrite LSZ sewing machine. I did find some great hardware at the SkiPulk website to that really helped dial the sled in. Thanks and hope my ideas help!
Thanks, yet again very informative vid, for us paris users.
No worries!
Really liked the drag line friction enhancement idea
Thanks!
Thanks, Aaron. I was just about to pickup a Paris sled and fit it out. Your experiences and information are invaluable. Very much appreciated.
Glad to help!
Thank you for your once again excellent video! quick question @ALinsdau : I see your setting was used in Denali, Antarctica, Rockies with have different terrain/slopes. Why not using poles instead of the rigging? Because of bouncing/stresses on the hips ? or because of crevasses? I see poles as better maneuverability and avoiding being crushed by the sled going downhill.
Thanks again for sharing your knowledge!!!

An excellent video. I started my serious outdoors pursuits sometime in the late 1970's and I've done most things other than Himalayan-style travel, and I "ain't" dead yet! This is one area that I have a serious interest in (sleds) yet have zero experience with and no potential information sources. I will order your book today and quite probably watch this video a few more times. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
As an aside, could you provide the details of the shotgun(s) you used in Greenland, perhaps "carried in Greenland" would be a better way to phrase it. My education and training is in Epidemiology and Community Health so I'm also interested in your expedition medical kit(s) as well but to get back on track I am a firearms instructor as well as an armorer for various weapons platforms and when you mentioned "shotgun" my interest was piqued. In my nearly 50 years of playing in the outdoors the overwhelming response to the subject of firearms by other outdoorspeople is blind panic.
Great pointers thanks!
Great information. I ordered a sled yesterday.
Hope you enjoy it!
@@ALinsdau It's my second one it should be arriving any minute now. It is a pelican 45 sled and if you have two of them you can put one on top of the other, upside down, because they lock in place therefore giving you a totally enclosed sled.
Important gear! Thank for sharing )
Always!
Mr A.L. books and your videos are so good and explain why you do something and the fault if you do it wrong. Thanks for the way you teach is very clear. My Q: to you is Why do you not use a SKEG / small rudder fixed position on the sled. ??? drag,weight, ?? I have a small hinge mounted with a old license plate that rides over the snow, going up hill and want to stop it digs in and stops the slide back, parking brake. Takes the weight off the hips . I can drop my belt and the sled stays put. I have been run over with the sled not fun. Be safe happy new year.

Aaron, you mention a few time your thermal cutting technique. Where can I learn more about this technique? I am about to attach my webbing straps to my pulk with your washer method, but I'm trying to sort out the best way to get a hole in the webbing without compromising it. Burn a hole through with soldering iron?
Here's my video on cutting:

I just use an old soldering iron to melt a hole. Works perfectly. Be safe!
@@ALinsdau Thanks so much Aaron. Great timing!
Do you use a tent bag? And if so, how do you balance it all out - a bag + arctic bedding + tent bag
Is it just me with loading problems or does the last part of the video repeat the bag segment?
I have the paris pulk as well, since I use it in woodlands I put 2 crossed PVC pipes to make it easier to steer. Also helps downhill somewhat, but doesn't replace a rope brake. I always get a lot of snow in it, planning to add a tyvek cover to span it.
two last parts (harness and attaching harness) are identical.. I am glad I am not alone who notice that
Thanks for pointing the editing issue out. Should be fixed soon!
Great video Aaron...I had to laugh about the ADD of viewership comment...very appropriate for todays times.
Too true.
@@ALinsdau You have done so many amazing adventures I was wondering have you ever done the Mont Blanc? I did it in the fall and though for someone like yourself its not really difficult but the views and just the experience are truly something everyone should experience. The people to are very wonderful to meet,
Can you recommend the Keron tent ? Im planning a denali tour but i have a hard time fitting in the namatj because of my 6,5 height? Thanks a lot! Loved your book in antarctica- cheers Copenhagen
The Keron is great. Used the GT4 in Greenland. It’s featured in my book Two Friends and a Polar Bear:

@@ALinsdau Would you mind telling me why you switched to the bigger model instead of the keron 3 gt that you showed in a previous video?
Great video !
Thanks!
I like your shock corde I see them premade not as durable and quite expensive.
Custom is great when you can.
Hi, i was wondering what kind of glue you are using to bond hard things together. I saw your video about aquaseal but it wouldnt work for things like ski bindings.
Thanks !

Thanks for watching!
@@ALinsdau Great idea with this backpack. I sewed rings into the side hip belts of my backpacks and wore elastic bands. Your patent is great too. Greetings from Poland. 🤗🤗
