    I have always thought these would be cool, does not look like much to it either.

    Very cool, but it doesn't work here because we don't have any snow.  :)

    Actually... Rick Taylor tried pretty hard to get one of these going and never really got the bugs out of it.  Obviously if you get it right it works really well.  This guy sure has it nailed.  Sure looks like fun!
