I could really use one of these cool little machines called the Snow Wolf, a wheeled snow shovel. You see, I have been renovating my basement over the last few days and hurt my back pretty bad, and to make things worse, it has started to snow. Just looking at the snow-covered pathway to my front door is making my lower back ache.
Even when I’m not hurting, shoveling the driveway with a normal shovel is a major pain in the ass back. The Snow Wolf’s ingenious design makes it easy to shovel snow without putting much pressure on your lower back; the Snow Wolf makes use of a large wheel that’s attached to a shovel at the front and bicycle-type handlebars at the back.
According to the sales page, the Snow Wolf can shovel snow three times faster than a traditional shovel and throw twice as much snow. The Snow Wolf is also said to reduce three to four times the stress on the lower back. When it’s now snowing, the Snow Wolf can be folded into a compact size for easy storage.
You can pick up a Snow Wolf, the wheeled snow shovel, at amazon.com for about $140. Your lower back will thank you for it.
