    Extractions: The History In Saint Moritz, Switzerland (in the Swiss Alps) bobsledding first became popular in the 19th century. Bobsleds were first raced on icygrounds and icy passes. The first competition was held in 1898 with five-passenger sleds. The sport spread rapidly to other countries, and by 1914, when the first European championships took place at St. Moritz, there were more than a hundred bobsled runs in Europe. In 1923 the Federation Internationale de Bobsleigh et de Tobogganing was created to set up rules for the sport. The next year, bobsledding was introduced into the Olympics at Chamonix, France. By 1950 the sport we know today had taken shape and attracts athletes from around the world today. The Sport Bobsled teams are made up of 2 to 4 people. The weight limit for 4 men is 1,389 LB and for a 2 person sled the limit for a 2 person sled is 827 LB. You start out by the team running down the track till they go about 228 feet. Then before they get to the first turn all the team members get into the sled. The captain of the team steers for the rest of the ride down. Then the team member in the back operates the brakes. If it is a 4 member team then the two middle team members lean backward then go forward real fast like snapping forward. That is what gives bobsledding it's name. When they do that it is called "bobbing". The way the bobsleds are made are like this: they have brakes and a streamlined aluminum cowl mounted on the front of the sled. They go up to 118 mph but the average speed is about 60 to 90 mph. The sled itself is made out of fiberglass and look like rockets because of their shapes. The tracks that they run on are called bobruns. They go up to 118 mph but the average speed is about 60 to 90 mph.

    Extractions: document.writeln(''); document.writeln('Initializing application...'); Username Password Remember me Forgot your password? Search Site: the sport of sliding down an ice-covered natural or artificial incline on a four-runner sled, called a bobsled, bobsleigh, or bob, that carries either two or four persons. Olympic Winter Games The Early bobsleds were built mostly of wood. Steel runners were adopted within a few years and, by the mid-20th century, steel and aluminum were used throughout. The four runners are generally mounted in pairs on two axles. Steering is accomplished by turning the front axle either with ropes or by a wheel linked to the axle by cables. The brake is a toothed bar that is pressed against the ice between the rear runners. Racing bobsleds have a streamlined cowling in front of the driver to reduce wind resistance. Three types are used: two-person boblets, as they often are called in Europe, and four-person bobsleighs. Rules limit combined team and sled weights to 390 kg (860 pounds) and 630 kg (1,389 pounds), respectively. The maximum team-and-sled weight for the two-women competition is 350 kg (770 pounds). Other sled dimensions are also specified. Due in large part to their innovative sled design and construction, bobsledders from the United States were both successful and influential during the first half of the 20th century. Since then teams from Germany and Switzerland have dominated international competition.

Because they're there, and you're not. Any discussion of last-place finishers at the Olympics, particularly at the Winter Olympics, would not be complete without at least mentioning Jamaica's bobsled team, which drew worldwide attention at the Calgary Games in 1988. Along with Eddie "the Eagle" Edwards (who will be the subject of a later post), they were among the high-profile "novelty acts" from those Games that no doubt spurred a tightening of the qualifying rules and, by the way, who make a discussion of last-place finishes so problematic: it's hard to say you're celebrating the hard work of last-place finishers to someone who's got Cool Runnings running through their head. But that's not to knock the team. They did considerably better in subsequent Olympics and other world competitions, beating other countries' more-established teams.

The first is to win the gold medal. The second is to let young girls know that they, too, can pursue their bobsled dreams. Bobsledding role models Jean Racine and Gea Johnson. "When I was growing up, little girls were encouraged to participate in sports like tennis and basketball, but never bobsledding," said Racine, 23, driver of the American women's two-person sled. "Well, I want that to change that for the next generation. I want to be the person today's young girls can look to and say to themselves, 'Hey, I can bobsled if I want to.'" "One day," Racine continued, "people will see women bobsledders as bobsledders first and women second."
