The Team

Each team consists of a minimum of six students who are required to design, construct, and race a toboggan with a running surface made completely out of Portland based concrete. Teams are also responsible for implementing a braking system of their own design, to bring their speeding sleds to a stop after the race.

The Waterloo team is traditionally made up of 4th year Civil Engineering students. This year’s GNCTR team is comprised of a group of students dedicated to continuing the University’s winning tradition.
