The post Olympic sledders fly down the ice with a few slick tricks appeared first on Popular Science.

Sledders lie face-down on the impact-absorbing nylon-mesh bed and grip the handlebars, which control durable polycarbonate front skis mounted to the aluminum frame.

There’s even an abandoned ski resort, Hidden Valley, located on the east side of the park, that attracts sledders and backcountry skiers.
