I'm happy to introduce Team Holcomb as guest bloggers here at the Bo-Dyn Bobsled Project blog.
For those of you who don't know, Steve Holcomb and his team were the top men's bobsled team in the world last year, taking the World Cup Combined title. Holcomb is entering the second half of this year's season as the World Cup leader, ranked just eight points ahead of Germany’s Andre Lange in the two-man, and 56 points ahead of Lange in four-man.
Holcomb's push crew of Steve Mesler, Pavle Jovanovic, and Brock Kreitzburg, has proved to be one of the fastest start engines
in the field.
This week the team is in Cortina, Italy. Steve won his first-ever gold medal last season at the World Cup competition in Cortina, where he swept the two and four-man races on his way to claiming the overall World Cup title.
Steven and his team will be contributing here periodically to talk about the places they visit, the work they do, and the experience of competing with the best bobsled teams in the world.
From left to right are Steve Mesler, Steven Holcomb, Brock Kreitzberg and Pavle Jovanovic. To watch the action check out NBColympics.com.
