We are Super Smash Boggan, a team of SAIT students working together to design and fabricate an incredible toboggan to race at the 2017 Great Northern Concrete Toboggan Race. This year we are celebrating and representing 100 years of SAIT's excellence!

The 2017 GNCTR is held in the nations frozen city, Winnipeg. Our team consists of thirty 1st and 2nd year engineering students from several programs at SAIT. This year’s team includes students from Civil Engineering Technology, Mechanical Engineering Technology, Architectural Technology, Construction Project Management and Engineering Design and Drafting Technology. The SAIT GNCTR 2017 project is a collaboration between these five SAIT programs.

Throughout the semester we are combining our problem solving, communication, and project management skills to design and fabricate an innovative sled to take to the GNCTR event. Every team member has contributed time and effort into making our toboggan one that will impress the judges, competitors, and industry sponsors with our Retro Video Game themed toboggan.

Why Do We Do This?

We believe it is important for engineering students to transfer their technical and theoretical skills obtained in the classroom to a real life experience. We can’t think of a better hands on experience than the GNCTR!

How Can You Help?

Donations from people like you is what makes it possible for our team to succeed.

With your support we could compete with other reputable Universities and Technology Schools and maintain our overall score from previous years in the top rankings!

Our total budget is roughly $35,000, but we are getting a helping hand from some corporate sponsors. However, we still need your help! Our goal is to raise $10,000 through ordinary people just like you. Your donations are desperately needed to purchase key components for our sled, and to get our team to Winnipeg and back!
