Check this out Single coaster - no brakes!I watched this then looked up airfare to Austria. I gotta get me on one of them. Every ski slope in the world needs one of these.
A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice.

Used to have one like that at Camelback ski area here but too many people got hurt and they shut it down.
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.

I don't read or speak Austrian, as I live in the 57 states of America, but I hope those weren't deer crossing signs.

Saw that one on FB. I love Alpine Slides. Most often found at ski resorts but are usually only run them in the off season.
Ive done those with no brakes before...so much fun!
