luge

Hurtling downhill with skis locked parallel in a deep, slick groove is like the Olympic luge where the only medal is getting to the car without busting your lip on a branch.

Of course, the same is true of luge and that only lasts three minutes.

Downhill track sports like luge are technology battles, as exciting as a NASCAR qualifying day.

The youngest member of the US luge team, 18-year-old Tucker West, deserves some attention, too.

He spent a year building a mini luge track with his father in their backyard in Connecticut.

There are also certainly examples among skeleton and luge of supreme achievement, limited experience notwithstanding.

We went suddenly round a corner, and quietly and without any fuss whatever Simpson left his luge and rolled on to the track.

Denry, whom nothing could induce to desert his luge, said that obviously "s-k-i" could only spell "planks."

Skates were well-behaved old horses compared to these long, untamed fiends, and a luge was like a tricycle.

And the child turned up the hill with her luge, leaving her elders to unknot the situation.

Luge propter amorem Jesu Christi, sponsi tui, quosque eum videre possis.
