making your own sled

We have all seen the fancy sleds that Umberto and Pipin ride, complete with coated cables to reduce friction!

But, who here has made their own sleds? After reading the no-limits thread it sounds like a blast. I am not looking to go down 500', but I would like to go down at least a hundered or so and play around- maybe deeper eventualy.

There is no doubt in my mind that CB is the more athletic form of freediving, but I am not talking about being a purist, just having fun.

So, step right up and show us your pictures, diagrams, drawings, improvements and mistakes! I would be interested in sleds with and without lift bags for ascent. Sven, where did you get to ride one?
