      Aidan Reilly I just assume if you’re really into slides you might seek this sport out

      If in whistler, you just give a worker 20 dollars, and ask to try it, then they will set u up

      That's literally what you do though. You find a local track and sign up for a class.

    The playups are hilarious. "First female non-german luge racer since 1997"
    They might as well say...
    "First white girl with brown hair at 5'5 to win in since yesterday when another white, brown hair 5'5 girl took first ever."

    It is a good question. They all used to be one federation, until the 1950's, when luge broke apart, the reason is kinda unknown.

    If bobsleigh, skeleton, and luge are all sledding events, then why aren't they all covered by the same international federation? (Luge has its own federation, unlike the other two.)

    • @eliiacovoni2451
      @eliiacovoni2451 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Kanjilearner i believe it is because luge is a pull of sport while bobsled and skeleton are run of sleds

  • @SEASLU

    do you have to keep your head up all the time to see the track? How to steer the sled?

    • @luketheduke6863
      @luketheduke6863 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You steer by pushing against the coufins, which are the rails at the front of the sled. You also shift your wait in the curves.

    TH-cam Users (by its own admission) upload more than 500 hours of fresh video per minute.
    That's 30,000 hours of new content per hour and 720,000 hours of new content per day.

      lol, Well, I guess im 2 years late, but I'm a luger, and my coach right now is Olympic Athelete Brooke Ashkrum she trains us by, some push ups, warm ups, and some mental pictures, like visualising the track, When we do dry land, starting January we just medician balls, weights, etc.
