sledder
Snowy slope rider
A sledder is someone who rides a sled, typically for recreation on snowy hills.
The term most often applies to children or adults engaged in winter play, coasting downhill on toboggans, plastic discs, or traditional wooden sleds.
The hill was crowded with sledders after the first big snowfall.
Professional or competitive sledders exist in sports like luge and bobsled, though those athletes are more commonly identified by their specific discipline.
