Jet Craft in Grande Prairie gets my vote. Have had my aluminum deck new since 1994. Best ones made on the market. The have been building sled decks WAY before anyone else was.

Just my opinion

Marathon's are great too! There are many of them around. There was one at yellowheadauction in Edmonton that was going for 1/4 price of a new one.

Marathon seems to build solid decks for all needs. Like mine alot. I bought mine from the buy and sell forum.

I have a Marathon and an STF, both are good decks. Jet Craft are one of the best but are expensive. I like the Marathon ramps the best.

Check out crosstrax in Red Deer.
Cheaper then a marathon , and good quality.
I had one for a couple years and experienced no problems at all
Nice long 11ft / 2 pc ramp

Marthon makes one heck of a deck. The only downfall is the price.

I just sold my last Marathon deck. Dang good decks. Had a few STF's and now thats what I use. Not made no more but have the name of the foreman that used to work there and I think he makes decks now in his spare time. Any one want his number PM me.
