130+ km/h. On ice. With your face just centimetres above the track. 🧊

Sounds crazy? For skeleton athletes, it’s just another day at the office.

And bobsleigh? That can go even faster. 🔥

Would you dare to take a run down the ice?

Did you guess it right? 👀🇨🇭

It’s the legendary Olympia Bob Run St. Moritz–Celerina!

At 1,722 metres long with 19 corners, it’s the oldest and only natural-ice bobsleigh track in the world. The track is rebuilt from snow and water every year, no artificial refrigeration needed.

A truly unique piece of sliding history. 🧊

Would you dare to take it on?

Beginnen is winnen 🏃‍♀️🤸‍♀️🫶
Tijd voor een jaren 90 foto collage van toen ik ben begonnen met bewegen. Mijn ouders lieten en stimuleerde me om van alles te doen. De manier om mijn eigen grenzen verleggen en prachtige herinneringen maken.
Daar ga in vandaag de dag mee door, door zelf te sporten, maar ook andere te helpen bij hun start in mijn werk als fysiotherapeut en als sporter van Team NL.
Wat ga jij vandaag doen?

Take a closer look at slide 2… 👀

See all those tiny spikes underneath the shoe? They’re there for a reason.

Athletes need as much grip as possible during their explosive sprint at the start. The small spikes help them grip the ice while running and pushing the sled, without slipping. 🧊⚡️

Who’s ready to see us back on the ice? 👀

What makes a sliding helmet safe?

The outside is made from a strong, hard material that helps spread the impact of a hit. Inside, a special foam layer absorbs part of the impact and helps protect the head.

The helmet protects athletes when they hit the ice, track or sled. A good fit also makes sure it stays in place, even at high speeds.

For skeleton athletes, the shape is important too. A smooth helmet helps reduce air resistance and makes them more aerodynamic.

Made for protection, built for speed. 🧊

We headed to Oberhof for a training weekend and finally got back on the push track; aka the Ice House! 🇩🇪🛷

Time to work on explosive starts, push technique and those small details that make all the difference. We are one step closer to the new season!

The work doesn’t stop at the finish line. 💪

During a bobsleigh or skeleton run, athletes can experience forces of around 4 to 5 G. That puts a lot of stress on the body, especially the neck and core muscles.

That’s why recovery is such an important part of racing. Time to recharge, reset and give the body what it needs to be ready for the next challenge. ⚡️

Recover. Reset. Go again.

Getting ready for another season on ice! 🔥❄️

Preparations are in full swing as we get ready for another winter of speed, ice and racing. Every training session brings us one step closer to where we want to be: back at the start line. 🛷💨

With just over two months to go until the World Cup returns at the end of November, the countdown is officially on.

Ready for another season of sliding? 👀
