EXTREME SLEDDING

Luge, which was invented in the mid 19th century in st. moritz switzerland, does exactly that. said to be “pure folly, a creation of bored, aristocratic, and sometimes destructive men on vacation.” the sport joined the olympics in 1964. A few years later the germans completely broke the sport with these insane areodynamics helmets, later prompting a rules change. But how do people get into the sport? Athletes are tested in a virtual combine , which you can find by googling “luge virtual combine”, and their results are compared to others in the sport. If you’ve got what it takes to be be successful, the team usa coaches will teach you the rest can you can even go to the olympic if you qualify. #luge #olympics #sledding #athlete #crossfit
