    Can't tell if you spelled "right" wrong to be ironic or not.

    Am I missing something? A sledge is a sledge. You sit on it and slide on snow...

    Granted, those are ski's, but it's not a spelling mistake (they show all four, so it's not arithmetical either).

    And you obviously meant 'right', right?

    Sledge is the proper English spelling.

    I mean, what's the wrong English spelling?

    A sledge is not a sleigh - two different things - so that's why I'm confused...

    Sled. There are other countries with different spellings/terms for the same thing. It was a simple joke that went over simple minds i guess. You guys really will nitpick anything to death wont you?

    Not nitpicking, just confused.

    I get there's different words, but it didn't click because it was spelled correctly for the word it was. That's all.

    Of late, it really has been. Some people wake up in the morning chomping at the bit to prove how smart they are and in the process forget to have fun.

    They used the wrong word. Sledge is essentially a vehicle on skis. So it’s just one sledge

    Huh. Funny how it's apparently not just me, but now the people I truly enjoy keeping up with around here are all starting to vocalize this sentiment of late. Like the people who specifically find the fun in the negativity of this hobby are really having more fun than everybody else lately.

    Maybe Fans Toys meant that the box contains four pieces of accessories to turn Parkour into a sledge. Simple as that. :eek: 

    …However, I thought I understood the joke and thus I was able to jump on the joke…Or I was able to get on the sledge, so to speak. Yeah anyway, let’s continue from here…
