'''Sledding''', '''sledging''' or '''sleighing''' is a [[winter sport]] typically carried out in a prone or seated position on a [[vehicle]] generically known as a [[sled]] (North American), a sledge (British), or a sleigh. It is the basis of three Olympic sports: [[luge]], [[Skeleton (sport)|skeleton]] and [[bobsled]]ding. When practised on [[sand]], it is known as a form of [[sandboarding]]. In Russia sledges are used for maritime activities including fishing and commuting from island to island on ice.
