The Chalet Toboggan Chutes 15 February, 2010

One of the many activities Carla and I enjoyed in Cleveland this past weekend was Tobogganing. The Cleveland Metropraks Department runs a tobogganing park. Very fun!

For our last run Carla, Andy, Katie, and I all decided to go down on the same toboggan. The formula I vaguely remember from physics is force = mass x acceleration. We had a lot of mass and acceleration so we flew down that hill. We blew past the couple in the chute next to us, and they actually had a head start.

We also went past the breaking pads placed at the end of the chute to slow the toboggan down. You can see at the end of the video the employee having to step aside because we kept going. To celebrate our awesome we all enjoyed corn dogs at the snack stand.

Cleveland Rocks!
