Street Luge: What it is and how it's done
I became interested in this sport an few weeks ago at Bridge Day in Fayetteville, WV. One of the competitors had a booth along with a newspaper to promote a race being held the next day. My friend and I stayed a second night and went to the second annual Fire on the Mountain Street Luge Competition about 10 miles away in Anstead, West Virginia. We walked up the course which was being ran on Gualey Mountain Fire Tower Road during a break between practice runs. Once at the top we saw some of the competitors including Michael Shannon and Bama. This being our first time attending a street luge competition we had several questions about the sport. Bama answered many of these questions and offered some information on how to get involved in the sport. He also let us try a practice run down the last branch of the course through the last curve.

the In The Know: A professional Luge Sled consists of 6061 T6 aluminum chassis, custom seat, foot pegs, hand holds, lean activated steering ("trucks"), and custom urethane wheels... luge pilot safety equipment consists of DOT or Snell approved full-face helmet, full-body professional racing leathers, gloves and high top, rubber-soled athletic shoes.
Talking to easy-going yet intensity-driven Road Luge pioneer Bob Pereyra on the telephone was the easiest part of our work day. Until we mentioned the fatal word "grandfather," when asking if he was truly the founder of this explosive form of near-death teasing. After all, that's what we had heard. "The most amusing part of the '95 Extreme Games was when I'd be at the bottom of the hill and all these people would yell out, 'Hey, Grandpa!' or 'It's the Godfather!' after seeing a special on one of the local stations the night before where they touted me as such." You could hear him shaking his head and smirking. "I'm more of a student-teacher. I'm still learning myself. In fact, one of my closest competitors beat me last year in a big race using the technique I taught him. If I don't make an effort to help the sport progress on an all-around basis, it won't go anywhere." It was a deal. No more "old-guy" comments.
the 2nd In The Know : Luge Road Racing is a hybrid, non-motorized sport combining motor sport racing engineering and technology with ice luge racing technique.

I have been participating in the sport of Street Luge since early 1993. It was introduced to me by my friend and teammate Darren Lott During my traveling days with Nabisco, I would spend a fair amount of time in Southern California (I'm from New Jersey). One day Darren approached me all excited. "You've got to try this" he said. Apparently, a French film crew was doing a story on Extreme sports and they heard about Street Luge and Darren at the Drop Zone (something else Darren got me to try). Darren had spent all weekend building a board based on his Street Luge days in the late 1970's and then he got his room mate to ride with him for the French film crew. Darren then approached me on my next business trip. He plopped me on the old "carpet board" while he rode his new board. I was hooked. I started competing soon after with FIGR (Federation of International Gravity Racing) and then EDI (Extreme Downhill International) and the X Games . The X Games was governed by the IGSA (International Gravity Sports Association). I've raced on the east coast of the US with the NSLA (National Street Luge Association - photo pages

Thanks jason - Very Kewl!
T he only brakes are your feet and you can really get caught into some major speed real fast!
T he course in Providence was a 2500 foot winding street with 5 hairpin turns and one full 90 degree ! Only inches above the ripping pavement... this is some scary shit!
T he Gravity heats were set on 4 and 6 man runs - meaning that besides not flipping over - the racers had to watch out for each other!
F irst man across the finish line wins!
STREET LUGE 4 MAN FINAL
"Best race I've ever had in my life!!" claimed Sean Mallard of Fullerton, CA when he won the Gold. Mallard had a lucky day! He wasn't even in the running until John Rogers was disqualified for a lane violation in the Semi's which bumped Mallard into third and into the finals.
Biker Sherlock , San Diego, CA took the Silver for $10,000, which when added to his other 3 metals, brought his take home prize money up to $35,000!!! George Orton , 39, from Juntington Beach, CA took the Bronze.

Source: Research Gravity Tyler Seitz feels there's nothing better than a good game of golf to prepare for the luge season. Seitz, the veteran of the Canadian squad and headed to his second Olympics, feels a day on the greens can help develop his mental strength.
"Mental toughness is something that is hard to develop," said Seitz. "I feel golf is the best way. You're out there playing 18 holes and one shot can screw up a whole game. You have to have the ability to rebound in golf and put that last shot behind you. It's the same in luge. If you lose concentration or there's a minor screw-up of any sort you have to be able to forget that in a split second and re-focus.
