Bobsled http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bobsleigh_olympic_2006_1b.jpg

I found this photo series about the Evolution of Bobsled over at teamusa.org. It has 30 years that range from 1928 to the present day.

It’s amazing how a sport evolves over time. I was very surprised with the first photo from 1928. The sledders are practically laying on top of each other. Even by 1932, bobsleds were designed so that the athletes were at least sitting up. They weren’t the most aerodynamic of designs, but at least they had a place to sit.

I hope that you enjoy the link.
