A skier drawn by a horse is an actual sport for the record.
But generally, as long as the speeds dont get too high it's a fun sport, but people have died due to extreme speeds and forgetting that the sled has no brakes. A helmet would be also wise.
Clearly you live near a hill with no trees to run into.
I remember that even old sleds with metal frames were destroyed by hitting something.
Or when someone built a ramp
