Is weight an advantage or a disadvantage in bobsledding?

    Weight is an advantage. While a heavier sled is harder to accelerate they build up more speed over the course of the run.

    The minimum weight for the sled is 170kg. The maximum weight for sled and athletes combined is 390kg (Men) and 340kg (Women)
