Complete opposite of my experience. Not sure if the same group. But never let go of the sled. Me and the gf went around a tight corner and as I weigh almost 2x of her, the sled almost rolled. She fell off, and I thought I would put my feet down to push sled back upright - however my feet sunk in and the sled was going fast, so I soon lost my grip.
The slid went bombing down the track, towards the first sled, which had my 12 yr old cousin in the front, driven by a tour guide. The guide ran at my sled to try and veer them away, and yet my sled still went barreling through his before he could set the brake. My cousin was a little shaken and out of breath, but was more worried that all the yelling was that the ice was breaking while he was in the sled.
It is a great experience, and the operators love their dogs more than anything.
