Turn your wooden toboggan into a real rocket sled by simply getting a good coat of wax on it.  
You will need some paste wax and a couple of cotton rags, as well as a bit of elbow grease.

Get Things Together

Just like the karate kid, get the wax on, about 3 coats if it is the first time the toboggan has been waxed. 

Wax Off

once the wax has had a chance to dry and harden up a bit, about 30 minutes, buff the wax off with a clean dry cotton rag.

Chill Before Serving

After you have buffed the wax set the toboggan out side in the cold to chill down. Find a hill and start shredding on your super fast rocket toboggan.
