Absolutely NOT it's way way too dangerous. The tracks they use for luge, skeleton, etc. are the FASTEST tracks in the world! You most definitely couldn't skate on them.
Skeleton is played just like the luge and bobsleigh except it is a one man sport and you go around an ice track on a special board. Hope this helped.
The skeleton and bobsleigh are different. The skeleton is only ridden by one person laying on his stomach going down the track head first. The bobsleigh is ridden by one, two, or four people; one person rides the sleigh laying on his back going feet first; two and four people ride the bobsleigh sitting down.

No, funding was low and only 5 countries had committed to send a bobsleigh team to the Winter Games in 1960 so the organizers copped a plea and saved about $750,000 by not building a bobsleigh track. The organizers, rightfully so, were criticized heavily for that decision.
