How it got its name.
Sled
The sled is made of fiberglass or steel and has two steel runners along the bottom and two handles on top. Bumpers on the front and rear of the skeleton act as shock absorbers and help protect the slider from the wall. The sled measures 3 feet in length by 16 inches wide and weighs between 70 and 115 pounds. This depends on the weight of the slider, as there's an overall weight limit.
