The Pine Trail Sled Test

At Snowy Pine Trail, a class tested a small wooden sled. Each time, they used the same gentle push, start line, and blue flag. On plain snow, the sled reached the flag in 6 claps and went straight. A felt strip made it take 8 claps and go straight. A smooth board made it take 5 claps and go straight. A curved side rail made it turn left toward a blue marker in 6 claps.

What did the class keep the same in each test?
