China's Snowmobile and Sled Center to host three national competitions

The national snowmobile and sled center ushered in athletes to take part in the snowmobile, steel frame snowmobile and sleigh Championships on Wednesday.

Three national championships will be held in the National Snowmobile Sled Center from March 8 to 14. Thirty-six athletes from thirteen provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities will participate in the competitions.

"Snow Dragon," the national snowmobile and sled center track, is the 17th snowmobile and sled track in the world, the 3rd in Asia and the 1st in China. It has a total length of 1,975 meters and a vertical drop of 121 meters.

Snowmobiling and sledding are the fastest among all winter sports, so athletes must wear hamlets in competition.
