He was flown by LifeFlight to Emanuel Hospital.
Emergency crews said it was the second sledding injury in two days, after a five-year-old boy hit his head on a bleacher on near Lakeridge High on Monday. His injuries were not serious.
Crews wanted to remind sledders that melting snow during the day can freeze as temps continue to drop, creating slicker conditions.
