ZM: The descriptions of these three sledding sports tell us the athletes use a sleigh or sled to travel at very high speeds down icy tracks — It surely sounds dangerous and scary to me!
K: Yeah, I definitely agree. In fact when you asked what the word sleigh means to me I immediately replied “snow”; however, bobsled, luge and skeleton all use an icy track — no soft fluffy snow in these three Olympic Winter sports!
