Video: A Snow Setup We Know You’ve Never Seen

Okay we sorta get the logic here – a wider tire is going to mean more surface area and perhaps the goal, like with ice skates, is to carve a sharp contact patch for ice. What these things are made of, though – that’s another subject entirely. Wood would be our first guess but then that leads to some really interesting questions like if you’re going to go with wooden wheels, why not cut them with teeth on the outer perimeter like giant cogs for additional traction? Or better still, just use the saw circular saw blades from whatever mill hooked you up with these wagon wheels and really shred some ice!

In any event, this is apparently really a thing and we’re not here to judge.
