Ideas for a DIY Skeleton Rail Sled

Ku, you can make up whatever reason or excuse you want but the fact is if you aren’t competitive over 30-60m you have no chance of pushing that sled fast. Who cares if people slower than you push the sled faster. Of the top 3 skeleton athletes, how many would you say are in the top 5 for speed among skeleton athletes? My point is to be productive and spend your time becoming a faster athlete who has a chance to make the team. Pushing the sled marginally faster isn’t going to help if someone else runs two tenths or more faster over short distances.

And toscoff off the 60m distance is beyond silly. Talk to your guy Beat Hefti to see whether or not it has a significant relationship.
