Oh the weather outside is frightful, but there is a silver lining to the clouds: they can sometimes bring snow. Depending on what part of the country you’re located in, a solid snowstorm can be a beautiful thing and open the door for a ton of outdoor activities. Taking advantage of the winter months for all the thrills they offer is definitely worth doing, but it’s dangerous to go alone. Here are eleven recommendations for snow toys to make your frosty romps that much more enjoyable.<\/p>\n

\"Superio<\/p>\n

Superio Snowball Launcher<\/h2>\n

If you’re tired of the hassle of throwing snowballs yourself, why not invest in a handheld blaster that will loft your frosty wads into the face of your foes with exceptional accuracy and range. Use the mold on the top to craft a perfectly spherical ball and then transfer it to the scoop-shaped barrel in the front. Pull back the elastic launcher and cock the pistol and it’s ready to go. Sure, it would be cooler if you could chamber multiple shots but this will definitely put you ahead of the snowball arms race.<\/p>\n

\"Freestyle<\/p>\n

Freestyle Mini Luge<\/h2>\n

Sledding is a class<\/a>ic winter activity, but it’s kind of corny to use a big plastic toboggan – plus extra material on the slope is just going to slow you down. Zipfy’s Freestyle Mini Luge gives you a new way to rocket down snow-covered hills at breakneck speed. The sturdy saddle boasts a no-skid vinyl seat and a steering handle that lets you turn simply by leaning in the direction you want to go. Although it’s small, this baby has a maximum weight capacity of 250 pounds, meaning it’s beefy enough for adults to use as well as kids.<\/p>\n

\"Snowfeet<\/p>\n

Snowfeet Mini Snowblades<\/h2>\n

If you’re looking for a new way to navigate the slopes this season, check these super-cool footwear out. A curious melange of ice skate, ski, and snowboard, the Snowfeet attach to your winter boots and let you carve down hills like you would with skis, walk through drifts snowshoe-style and pull off tricks. A heel brake in the back allows for quick stops in case things get out of hand. Made from durable reinforced fiberglass with a stainless steel edge, the Snowfeet might become an essential part of your winter arsenal.<\/p>\n

\"Bradley<\/p>\n

Bradley Ultimate Towable Snow Tube<\/h2>\n

Sledding is fun, but real winter heads know that tubing might be even better. Sure, you sacrifice some mobility that you can get with a sled, but you make up for it in bouncy chaos. If you don’t have any hills where you live, there’s still hope – the geniuses at Bradley, widely regarded to be the leaders in tube technology, make a tube with a tow attachment so you can hitch it on to the back of a truck or an ATV and go skipping across any snowy surface. Just watch those speeds, boss, and maybe wear a helmet.<\/p>\n

\"Kyosho<\/p>\n

Kyosho Blizzard FR<\/h2>\n

This dual-motor radio-controlled vehicle uses a pair of treaded tracks to navigate snow, ice, and all manner of other terrain. All-wheel suspension lets it tackle all kinds of ground, and the snowplow up front can clear the way for your less capable vehicles. The shovel is also independently controlled, so you can raise it if you want to move faster without digging a path. This is a solid mid-priced RC vehicle with some very cool features you won’t get anywhere else.<\/p>\n

\"Flexible<\/p>\n

Flexible Flyer Snowball Launcher<\/h2>\n

For an alternate take on snowball flinging, the Flexible Flyer delivers quick sphere creation coupled with a swift delivery system. Modeled after the scoops used in the Basque game of Jai Alai, this plastic scoop comes with a ball attachment that lets you pack loose snow into a projectile and then tip it into the bowl of the launcher. A quick flick of the wrist and you’ll whip that fresh snowball at your target without even getting your mittens wet. It’ll take a little practice, but you’ll soon be the dominant force in winter conflicts.<\/p>\n

\"Snow<\/p>\n

Snow Brick Molds<\/h2>\n

A toy doesn’t have to be high-tech to be fun. These class<\/a>ic brick molds are just pieces of formed plastic, but the possibilities they open up are endless. If you’re a big LEGO builder, imagine taking your greatest creations and putting them together for real in a winter wonderland with sturdy bricks made from hard-packed snow. If the weather’s cold enough, you can even leave them out to freeze overnight for maximum iglooage. No, that’s technically not a word but you can see where we’re going with it.<\/p>\n

\"Yooner<\/p>\n

Yooner Seated Ski<\/h2>\n

Also known as a “jump jacker,” seated skis are a fun if somewhat nerve-wracking way to hit the slopes. A single shock-resistant stainless steel ski is attached to a seat that lofts just eight inches above the ground, and riders glide through the snow, leaning gently to cut turns and putting their feet down in front to brake. The company claims that you’ll catch on virtually instantaneously, but even if you do wipe out, you’re like a foot off the ground, how much can it possibly hurt?<\/p>\n

\"Inflatable<\/p>\n

Inflatable Backyard Ice Rink<\/h2>\n

Ice skating is a true winter pleasure, but it can be hard to find a frozen surface that’s thick enough to not plummet you to a watery grave. Here’s a low-tech solution that’ll turn any flat surface into a 10′ by 20′ rectangular rink perfect for practicing slap shots, ice dancing or anything in between. Eight-inch side rails help keep the liquid inside on a slope up to 5 degrees, and it’s easy to balance out any inconsistent ground with sand or other fill. The base is made from sturdy but flexible plastic that will last you many a winter.<\/p>\n

\"Sled<\/p>\n

Sled Legs<\/h2>\n

We’re always into new ways to interact with the snow, and these are pretty cool. Strap these hard plastic Sled Legs to your calves and start running, then dive onto your knees and do a James Brown-style knee slide to really impress your peers. The interior design of the Sled Legs is super interesting – there’s a subtle angle leading towards the bottom, so when you dive it naturally lifts your toes upwards so they don’t drag. These were invented in Canada, so you know they’re legit.<\/p>\n

\"Snoopy<\/p>\n

Snoopy Sno-Cone Machine<\/h2>\n

One of the most iconic snow-related toys of all time, the Snoopy sno-cone machine has remained virtually unchanged since it made its debut in 1979. Based on an earlier design by Hasbro engineer Sam Speers, the device let kids grind up ice into a tasty treat they could flavor with sweet syrups and sell to their friends. The iconic cartoon beagle on top and red plastic shovel that you use to serve the sno-cone remains intact forty years after it hit the market.<\/p>\n
