Sports Lab
Game on! The Sports Lab allows you to test your strength and explore the science behind elite athletic performance. Step into the shoes of a professional basketball player and put your vertical leap to the test, measure your pitch speed, race through high-speed cycling adventures, master the forces of alpine skiing, and crash-test helmets for safety. You’ll challenge both body and mind with hands-on sports activities — and compete like a pro. Ready? It’s game time.
