Bobsleigh/Bob/Bobelet |
Bobsleigh |
Le bobsleigh (ou bob, bobelet) est un sport d’hiver, dans lequel une équipe de deux ou quatre personnes fait une
descente chronométrée sur une piste glacée étroite et sinueuse, aux virages
relevés, dans un véhicule (ou traîneau)
caréné, orientable et mu par la gravité (et les mollets des
occupants au départ), pouvant dépasser les 150 km/h en compétition. Ses pratiquants sont
appelés bobeurs (bobeuses chez les femmes).
