Bobsleigh

Bobsleigh is a winter sport where teams race down icy tracks in a streamlined sled called a bobsled. Athletes push the sled to start, then hop in for the ride, aiming for the fastest time from top to bottom. The sport combines precision steering, aerodynamics, and teamwork, with runs reaching high speeds on curved, icy tracks. Bobsleigh events include two-man, four-man, and women’s competitions. The sport originated in the late 19th century in Switzerland and requires skill, strength, and strategy to navigate the challenging courses efficiently.
