Founded in 1966, New Zealand Company Skyline Enterprises Ltd is a global leisure operator with five sites in New Zealand, Singapore, and Canada. The company operates an inventory of thousands of luge carts, a purpose-built three-wheeled cart which is gravity-fuelled, with the rider having control over speed and direction using a braking and steering system.
The activity is fast-paced, with luge carts typically sustaining high levels of vibration and physical impact. As the carts are used and stored outside, they are also subjected to challenging environmental conditions in the form of wet weather, high levels of humidity and extreme cold.
