Wow that's accurate. They look super cool.

[-] GreenMario@lemm.ee 55 points 10 months ago

Yeah, absolutely.

[-] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 39 points 10 months ago

Or like they’re actually the Wakanda bobsled team.

They look like Netrunners from cyberpunk

[-] TunaCowboy@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago

Feel the rhythm! Feel the rhyme! Get on up, it's bobsled time! 

[-] Senuf@lemmy.ml 13 points 10 months ago

Is there a Badass Pic Award wherever they have to compete?

[-] cybermass@lemmy.ca 12 points 10 months ago

It's crazy to me that Nigeria has a bobsledding team, where would they practice?

[-] CassowaryTom@lemmy.one 11 points 10 months ago

Is weight an advantage or a disadvantage in bobsledding?

[-] ImpossibilityBox@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

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)

[-] CassowaryTom@lemmy.one 2 points 10 months ago

Thanks for looking that up for me. Do you have anything to add?

[-] CassowaryTom@lemmy.one 7 points 10 months ago

Nope. I'm sorry. That was nasty. Reflective of my mood, not you. You did add to the conversation. And I apologize.

[-] ImpossibilityBox@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

No worries!

[-] ActuallyRuben@actuallyruben.nl 9 points 10 months ago

Honestly, it's quite likely they really never lost a real life lightcycle race

[-] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 5 points 10 months ago

They look like the bad girl squad in Sayonara Wild Hearts

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 2 points 10 months ago

this picture is literally perfect except that they're against a white background. whose idea was that. turn that sh*t black, throw in some neon green edge lighting, and those three could be on a movie poster

[-] pinkdrunkenelephants@lemmy.cafe 2 points 10 months ago

Didn't Daft Punk break up a year ago?

[-] runner_g@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 10 months ago

Break up, no. Retire, yes :(

[-] pinkdrunkenelephants@lemmy.cafe 2 points 10 months ago

Well, they had a good long run and I hope they enjoy theur retirement. I hope they're relaxing on a beach somewhere
