Skeleton

Head tucked down, skimming just a few centimetres above the icy track, body movements guiding the sled along the run. Staring down the track at ice level, the last curve races towards them, then the finish line, with its rewards for those guided by courage and the most advanced aerodynamic materials. Shooting from the prone position of the descent to the highest step on the medal podium. Lying prone, facing downhill, arms at their sides, hurtling down the run at maximum speeds of 130 kilometres an hour. Skeleton athletes use the same track as bobsleigh and luge. To move the sled, only the thrust force produced by the athlete and the force of gravity are permitted. In Skeleton, steering is carried out by means of the athlete's body movements. Skeleton athletes use the same track as bobsleigh and luge. The track must be at least 1,200 metres long, with the ascending lengths of the course measuring around 12% of the total distance. After the finish line, the track climbs into an ascent to allow the athlete to stop. The combination of a straight and curving track creates a challenging course.
