It's winter (more so in some places than others) and time for winter sports. One of these is the Skeleton bobsleigh event.
The bobsleigh skeleton gets its name from its time of origin in 1992, when a new all metal sled first appeared, its frame was totally minimal like a skeleton. The event is now
simple known as The Skeleton.
The idea is to take this descriptor and extend it to introduce more variety to the event, which has become very minimal and sterile. With Skeleton At The Piste, the bobsleighs fully adopt the apperance of an actual bony skeleton.
Competitors will climb inside their new Skeleton of choice and hurtle down the track totally enclosed in its replica bone structure. Their heads will naturally be protected by a helmet formed into a matching closing over skull. Some will choose to be inside a human form skeleton, while for others a fish or lizard is selected.
Extra marks are awarded for Artistic Impression and combined with the time as the Skeleton At The Piste slithers and hurtles down the slope.
