You steer the skeleton sled by putting weight on one side to make it turn.

Athletes steer by putting pressure into the sled with the use of their shoulders, they will also use their feet kind of like rudders.

To steer the sled to the right you apply preesure to the right runner and vice versa for left.

How do you stop in a skeleton race?

In a skeleton race, stopping is primarily achieved by dragging your feet along the ice and using your hands to stabilize yourself as you slow down. Athletes typically aim for a designated stopping area after crossing the finish line, where the ice is less steep. It's crucial to maintain control and balance to avoid falling over while decelerating. Additionally, using the sled's design, which has a lower center of gravity, helps in managing speed effectively.
