Ice sledge racing is a Paralympic sport where contestants use a lightweight sledge and propel themselves using two poles. As a modern organized sport, it was available as a Paralympic sport between 1980–1988 and 1994–1998.
It is contested using a speed skating rink with a 400 meters (1,300 ft) circumference. The sport is contested in 100 metre, 500 metre, 700 metre, 1,000 metre, and 1,500 metre distances.[1] A speed skating rink (or speed skating oval) is an ice rink (a specific type of sport venue) in which a speed skating competition is held.
This sport is seven centuries old.[citation needed] An ice sledge racing sled must be moved with sticks. In the past these sleds were made of wood with beautiful paintings. Today they are often made of aluminum or iron. There are several types of sleds, namely the sitting sled, the kneeling sled, the steering sled and the ice sledge hockey sled.
Paralympic program inclusionedit
In 1980 with the Paralympic winter games in Geilo Norway, ice sledge racing became a Paralympic sport. After the 1998 winter games in Nagano, ice sledge racing disappeared from the Paralympic program again. Despite the fact that the sport has been Paralympic, only mixed competitions are held in the Netherlands, because able-bodied and disabled athletes both compete in ice sledge racing together.
