A luge sled is a small, one- or two-person sled used in the sport of luge, where athletes race down a narrow, twisting track at high speeds. The sled is designed for aerodynamics and speed, featuring a lightweight frame made of materials like fiberglass or carbon fiber. Luge sleds have a unique design that allows athletes to lie on their backs with their feet at the front. This position helps reduce air resistance and enables better control during the descent. The sleds are equipped with runners that glide on the ice, providing stability and maneuverability on the track.
