Matthew Dallow (born 27 January 1972) is a New Zealand bobsledder. He competed in the two man event at the 2006 Winter Olympics.[1]
He turned to bobsleigh after successive injuries forced him to give up his career in the decathlon and in rugby. Injury also prevented him at the last minute from competing in the 2002 Olympics.[2][3]
Dallow is the son of Ross Dallow and the younger brother of New Zealand television news anchor Simon Dallow.[4]
