Made from 3/16” welded steel, the Alpaca pan attachment measures approx 30” x 22” x 4” with a loadable floor dimensions of 21.5” x 13.5”.  It conveniently bolts directly to the frame of the Echo Dog Sled, and still allows for the regular use of the sled’s weight post and pulling anchor points thanks to a 2” diameter center hole and two carabiner holes. Athletes and coaches can use the pan to quickly add or remove weight in the form of sandbags, dumbbells, kettlebells, etc., as seen in action during the Alpaca Sled event at the 2022 CrossFit Games. Users can remove the plate post at any time to utilize more of the full loadable footprint of the pan.

Included standard with the complete Alpaca Kit, or available a la carte as an upgrade for current Echo Dog Sled owners, this pair of single-formed bent steel handles measure 1.9” in diameter and can be positioned on either end of the sled, at heights of 31.75” and 12” respectively. With more surface area than traditional sled handles, they enable both vertical (neutral grip) and horizontal (pronated grip) hand placement, as well as upright and low-angle body positioning. Both handles are spaced 20” on center and weigh 28 LBS combined.

The included spacer can be placed over the weight post and positioned in the Alpaca Pan, where it will help to protect both the pan and any added weight plates from metal-on-metal damage. It also helps prevent pinch points when loading plates. When the stack spacer is installed, the loadable length of the sled’s plate post is reduced from 17” to 14”.

The Alpaca Sled is built around the original Rogue Echo Dog Sled, and brings over the key benefits of that unit, including the 0.25” plate steel construction, compact footprint, laser-cut Rogue branding, and optional protective plastic skis and dragging strap. Customers who already own an Echo Dog Sled can also order an Alpaca conversion kit (either the Handles, the Pan, or both) to upgrade their current sled.
