Five members from each team board their toboggan and push off down the hill to earn coveted awards including fastest toboggan, and shortest braking distance.
Each team creates a booth showcasing the important design elements of their toboggan, and the phases of work that were required to bring the team from race dreams to race day. A panel of professionals then reward teams for research and innovation in areas including concrete mix design, and braking system design.
Teams are encouraged to display their positive spirit through the competition by developing a theme for their team, complete with uniforms, slogans, and cheers. Teams that exemplify a friendly and outgoing attitude will grab ‘Spirit Judges’’ attention.
