Experience a high-speed adrenaline buzz like no other with this exciting Bobsleigh experience. The purpose of bobsleighing is very simple, you race the sleigh down a steep hill as quickly as possible. A team of people begin at the top of a hill, where, from a standing start they push the bobsleigh along, gaining momentum as they go & then jumping on board the sleigh as it hurtles down the track at break-neck speeds, twisting & turning before then crossing the finishing line. The beauty of this experience is you don’t need to head to an Olympic luge track to try this adrenaline-fuelled winter sport. In fact, you don’t even need any ice. Instead, a purpose built track has been designed with a wheeled sleigh which is affixed to a track (similar to an athletics track) with grooves, ensuring you stay safely on course. On the day, a high performance coach will guide you through all the essential skills & strategies required to get you started & to ensure your safety. You'll focus on the most crucial aspect of the race, which is pushing the bob off the start & getting in as quickly as possible. The session starts with an introduction to the simulated bob run, then it's a thorough safety briefing. Once you are kitted out with your protective helmet, it's out to the track to learn the sport & techniques used. You will have a trial run on the 'start facility', first built for athletes to train for the Salt Lake City Olympics. The start facility is a true replica & although it is not on ice, you can achieve speeds of up to 30 mph (total track length is Approx. 60m
- this is not a full length track & there will be up to 3 other participants in the bobsleigh with you). You will have a chance to get plenty of practice before being put to the test on the timed runs. This bobsleigh experience is the perfect gift for any extreme sports enthusiast who has a love for speed.
