The flexibility of the runners allows the driver to steer the kicksled by twisting the handlebars. One can have a passenger or luggage on the chair seat. The kicksled can also be used as a dog sled. </p><p>A kicksled is designed to be used on hard, slippery surfaces like ice or hardpacked snow. To kicksled in deeper, more powdery snow, extra-wide plastic snow runners are attached to the standard, thin runners of the sled. On very smooth, bare ice, the use of traction devices like spiked shoes or crampons improves kicking force. On level ground, one can easily reach a speed of 15 km/h (9 mph) to 20 km/h (12 mph), and much faster on downhill section or with a strong tail wind. </p><p>The kicksled is in common use in <a href="/wiki/Sweden" title="Sweden">Sweden</a>, <a href="/wiki/Norway" title="Norway">Norway</a> and <a href="/wiki/Finland" title="Finland">Finland</a>, especially where roads are not sanded or salted.

Kicksled racing was a major event in the <a href="/wiki/Nordic_Games" title="Nordic Games">Nordic Games</a>, which were the ancestor of the Winter Olympics. </p><p>Around 1990 kicksled racing was revived as a serious sport in Finland. There are races of up to 100 kilometres (62 mi) long and the average speed is around 30 km/h (19 mph). Often the kicksled races are held in conjunction with marathon <a href="/wiki/Speed_skating" title="Speed skating">speed skating</a> races on natural ice; the kicksleds use the same ice track as the skaters. </p><p>A light-weight racing kicksled model is mass-produced by the Finnish kicksled company ESLA. Another racing and sport purposed aluminium-alloy based ultralight kicksled - the Kickspark is produced by Kickbike Worldwide in Finland. </p><p>In Canada, the kick sled has been modified for dog sports. A <a href="/wiki/Bridle" title="Bridle">bridle</a> is attached to the kick sled, and a <a href="/w/index.php?title=Gangline&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Gangline (page does not exist)">gangline</a> to that, with one to three dogs pulling. This small sled is useful for the urban dog owner, as it is lighter and easier to transport than a full scale dog sled.
