Issa, sledging should be "sledding" :) - aloshek, NOV 14, 2009

"to sledge (third-person singular simple present sledges, present participle sledging, simple past and past participle sledged)" - Issabela, NOV 14, 2009

to sledge - to drag or draw a sledge; to ride, travel with or transport in a sledge - Issabela, NOV 14, 2009

"sledge" is BrE, whereas "sled" - AmE :) - Issabela, NOV 14, 2009
