These are the results of the men's skeleton competition at the 1928 Winter Olympics in St. Moritz. At that time the sport was called cresta, and St. Moritz had the most famous Cresta Run, dating to 1884. In many locations the sport was referred to as tobogganing during these and the 1948 Games. The competition took place on the Cresta Run and medals were awarded after a total of three runs down the course.
The bronze medalist, David Carnegie, was also Earl of Northesk.
