Invented
by a group of Englishmen on holiday in Switzerland in 1890. Their
aim was to create a sled that could carry two or more people down
a snow covered road between St Mortiz and Celerina. The new sport
immediately caught on and a special track, complete with banked
curves made of ice was constructed next to the road in 1902.
|
|
. |
|
Bobsleigh
has evolved over the years into a dramatically exciting and
demanding sport with competitions run down ice tracks that are at
least 1500m long, have at least 15 banked curves which allow speeds
of over 90 mph to be achieved. |

The
bobsledder of today is a highly trained athlete, a good start at
the beginning of the run (lauf) is vital. It is the pilots
responsibility to steer the bobsleigh down the track in the most
efficient way possible. Bobsleigh is a team sport and teamwork is
the essential ingredient in order to create the perfect harmony
necessary to complete a successfully course from start to finish.
