  1. #ClimateAction #SouthTyrol will participate with many others to #protest against the construction of a NEW bobsleigh run in #Cortina, a host of winter #Olympia2026.

    The governments promised to NOT build a new one, and made a U-turn in the last minute... now they are already cutting down trees and consuming a lot of concrete.

    We say NO, diciamo di NO, wir sagen NEIN! ✊

  2. @MissConstrue does anyone seriously doubt that luge and skeleton began with drunken dares by bored out of their minds northern europeans? 😜 Bobsled too, most likely.

  6. 90 mph/145 kph and 5G’s of force – what is not to love?

    Olympic Bobsledding has long been a hot bed of technological innovation, and the 2026 winter games are no exception.

    Carbon fiber, custom spike plates/specialized shoes, 3D printing, plasma nitriding, and yes data analytics are all powering efforts by teams to gain even the slightest of advantages. Advanced data analytics powered by data from sensors in the sleds is studied to plot the best trajectories for approaching curves and developing race strategies.

    Lastly, design efforts continue to improve the safety systems in sleds and aim to create refinements in three key areas: 1) keeping athletes inside the sled (during crashes), 2) improving the ability to brake the bobsled, and 3) improving protective clothing and helmets.

  16. Why is it that no matter how posh the other facilities get, the bobsleigh/luge/skeleton track always looks like it was built by my dad with scrap wood from his garage?

  17. I like the aesthetics of the winter Olympic bobsled/luge/skeleton sliding centres.

    Metallic grilles, exposed precast or in-situ concrete, various bits of rough timber panelling, highway crash barriers, and it always looks like you start and finish in a fairly cramped bit of a recently completed carpark.

    Lovely.

  18. Allez, j'avais un petit moment ce matin, alors je me suis motivée pour encoller le fond de la poubelle.

    J'en ai aussi profité pour passer de l'huile de lin sur la poubelle sur j'ai poncée samedi pour que ça révèle une belle couleur boisée !

  19. It's very important to occasionally allow the drone to catch and eat the bobsleigh otherwise they get discouraged.
