    Even with no friction, it depends on the slope of the roof. That is, it depends on how much elevation (altitude) he loses during the slide.

    Whatever that number is ... call it 'h' ... Santa's speed when he reaches the edge is

    Square root of (19.6h) meters per second.

    It doesn't matter how much he weighs, or how far he has slud. Only how much altitude he lost on the slope while sliding.
