You might want to talk to an X-orsist before someone tries to use X-tortion to X-tort you.

Funny story: A friend, Tom, in N. Conway once claimed to me that he had invented a new sport that he called extreme sledding. "Bobsledding?" I asked. "No," he replied. "EXTREME sledding." He then proceded to tell me several sick mini-stories about his new sport. Still, I was skeptical, so to prove his point he drove me out to White Horse Ledge, a well known slabby climbing area in warmer months... Tom's extreme sledding course in winter. He opened his trunk and handed me a thick plastic shingle, about 18" x 1'. It had butt-cheek imprints, as if to instruct, "Left cheek here. Right cheek here. Lift feet. Slide." I turned my gaze toward White Horse. It was covered with a 12" layer of snow on top of a 1 inch layer of ice. I looked sheepishly back to Tom, but he was already marching toward the rock. At the base, he gave me a quick butt-sled-climbing lesson. "It's like ice climbing," he said, "but not. Plant the sled. Step, step. Plant, step, step. Plant, step, step." And up he went. I followed up the loose snow, sometimes making progress, other times sliding back a few steps. We climbed steadily until we were well into the 5.5 Standard Route, just below a steeper section that was unclimbable by butt sled. Tom turned to face downward, and with a mighty push, he leapt from the wall and landed on the icy snowy slab, butt first, with his two-cheek sled under him. He slid slowly, unimpessively, until he hit the first patch of ice, at which time he took off like the Millenium Falcon making the jump to hyperspace. Tom approached the bottom at warp speed, but he wasn't slowing. In my desparate concern, I lost my balance on the slick slab and down I went after him. Somehow, I managed to get the sled under me just before hitting the same patch of ice, and like a rocket, I shot down the slope. All around me loose snow broke free in a mini avalanche, that luckily, never rose to above chin height. My eyes stung with snow and wind, so I couldn't tell what had become of poor Tom. Was he hurt? Was he even alive? Would I live through this? I slammed into the ground at near 60 miles per hour. Amazingly there was enough fluffy powder to cushion the impact. I jumped up laughing just in time to be knocked back down by my avalanche. Next to me, Tom was silent only because he was laughing to hard to make noise. To my knowledge, Tom now claims the only butt-sled descent of Tuckermans. True story.
