Imagine flying head-first down an icy winding 1200-metre bobsled track at speeds of up to 130 kilometres an hour!

Journey through an Australian Institute of Sport success story by learning how a group of sun-kissed Aussies defied all the odds and joined the world's best on the Winter Olympic stage. 

Experience how they learnt to drive themselves head-first down the ice when you visit the new and adrenaline charged interactive Skeleton exhibit in Sportex.
