If you like bobsled and luge you'll really like skeleton which is basically luge but face first.

I was just having a conversation with someone about these sports...how do you just one day say, "skeleton, yes, I'm going to be a skeleton champion". I've never seen it as a school sport...or even in the community centres sports activities...wtf?
I like watching snowboarding, hockey, freestyle aerials, and ski jumping.

But you see kids tobogganing anywhere they can find a hill with snow. It's a blast! Add a little control with blades on the the bottom but it's still sledding.

Short track speed skating gets pretty intense too. A better spectator sport than X-country skiing for 12 hrs.

Yah, but how do you go from tobogganing to considering it as a career?
Meh on the speed skating

Short track! They have relay races as teams go against eachother. Similar to a roller derby race.

I'll give it a try, that sounds more exciting than round and round and round and round like NASCAR.
I'm no roller derby fan though! (no donut bumping)

Taking up a sport called skeleton isn't the brightest of ideas.
