/deathslide/ generalWe Luge training now
>>153317641>two men in skintight suits laying on each other>australian announcer: "they start 723.5532 kilosciences above sea level"this feels a little gay ngl
>>153317724Figure Skating is not enough representation. Manhump supplements it
>>153317641is this the gayest sport in existence?
>>153317754Its your national sport Gunther
Is there women’s double luge
why isn't CBC showing the training
>>153317641does the bottom one have to have a boner so the top one can wedge it in his bum crack in order to stay on the sledge?
>>153317804CBC seems to be missing a lot of training and other stuff
>>153317796Yes, but where is the mixed doubles?
my nigga BOSSMAN
>>153317972you cut the funniest part, where they tried to get up
>>153317754Yes it is. I love the sliding sports but I can't get on board with two guys having sex on a sled.
according to the schedule, they are doing womens doubles training right now but there's no broadcast....
my body is ready
Let's go, praying for a big crash
Damn TR in every run so far by Long Rooster
Say Olympic retard we can’t filter
The event is over.
Do Germans and Austrians have luge clubs where people can just go deathslide? How would an American get into this?
I don't even get it, how do you improve at this sport? I feel like only the tech could shave off time.
>>153321046plastic surgery to make your body more aerodynamic
>>153321023You have to put a really big one on the poop shelf toilet to get in.
What's the optimal physique for this sport?
>>153321046I suspect the German lad in front is injecting lead or tungsten into his penis
>>153321046You can steer by moving the skis with your bodyweight/legs
>>153317754Has to be
Women's skeleton when
>>153321046Better start (athleticism)Better line in the track by steering the sled (talent/balls to take risks)
i would be really bad at this sport because my penis is too big and would just slow me down
>>153321159they all tuck it in like in silence of the lambs
this would be much more interesting if they would start from the slowest to the fastest guy
>>153321145>talentBut isn't that just motor skills? What technically makes someone better at doing this than others?
>>153321180pretty sure they reverse the orther for the last run
>>153321102You want to be heavy but not too large, so lots of muscle and minimal fat, though not so big that you can't be aero>>153321180They do in some rounds
>>153321186Not entirely sure, i think lots of it comes down to experience as well and just finding people willing to do this sport professionally. Scandis for instance are nonexistent in this sport because there are no tracks anywhere near them to train on.
Would I be able to go down on that shit as a total amateur? Not fast, just in a comfy way. Or I would die 100%?
>>153321281No, we are nonexistent in this sport because it’s gay.
Is there a stream? Bbc aren't showing it
>>153321186probably being far onto the spectrum and visualising/perfectly recalling every subtle curve and movement needed without even looking or trying to steer
they should make bobsleighing and skeleton VR games
>>153317796Yes but one of them has to be head first
>>153321186It's like saying what makes someone better at driving F1 cars than others. You have to be good at racing, but also have to have the strength and balance to actually be able to steer the thing.
Can someone mute the fucking drone sounds?????
>>153317641How did this sport start? Drunk Alpines or Nordics having a laugh?
they need this
>>153321367BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
How is that german dude so good that even at the start hes 2 seconds faster than these guys
>>153321381have you never gone sledding?
>>153321367BZZZZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
>>153321408Yeah but not on ice with blades strapped to the sled
>>153321390For me, it's the Stiga Black Edition
>>153321458it's just a natural evolution of sport and human need to go faster
i think id be good at luge. you just have to lay down. i do that all day.
>>153321401Isn't that the total time difference after 3 runs?
>>153321401It's the cumulative time diff from each run
>>153321535>>153321618ohI am as amateur as our tourist who just went down
>>153321367It's a mystery why broadcasters haven't put back in their 2010 world cup Vuvuzela filters.
oh dear
Sliding is cool as fuck, but ludge looks so fucking gay.
>>153321717me on the left
when i was a kid and we used to go to mountains every year for vacations i used to ride on those alpine coasters a lot. and they weren't as safe as they are today and that course i used to ride on was a bit like a sledding course at the bottom, without rails, just a metal pipe. i got so good at it wanting more speed and cutting corners without breaking at all that one time i had so much speed on a corner and it pulled me so high, i clipped my leg on the course and fell out and burned the skin on my leg on a hot metal course. that's when i noped out of sledding all together and now i'm scared :(
>>153321299even professionals die semi oftendo you really want to be fired in an ice centrifuge at 140km/h? no airbags, no "crumple zones", just your head vs concrete
These sliding sports can give you CTE
>>153321803My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15-year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize; he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament... My childhood was typical: summers in Rangoon... luge lessons... In the spring, we'd make meat helmets... When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds — pretty standard, really. At the age of 12, I received my first scribe. At the age of 14, a Zoroastrian named Vilmer ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum — it's breathtaking... I suggest you try it.
>>153321827ok but I dont want to be fast, just a grandma tempo
>>153321866What kind of pasta is that?
>>153321866sure think mr gpt
>>153321803I did one in Hungary on Scout camp but it was concrete, and one of the leaders came off, as did all the skin on one of his legs because he was in shorts
>>153321717He has to stay stiff all the ride or his buddy falls off. Extremely popular with the ladies, the few who can get it up to one.
>>153321882>>153321895bros...you dont know who Mike Miers is??
>>153321882>>153321895embarrassing, zoomers are doomed
>>153321934>>153321947to be honest, i didn't even read that, just saw multiple "—" and assumed it's gpt
Whats the point of laying on top of each other, what does this add to the sport
>>153321987its hot. Have you seen the usa cuties doing it? They are massive whores instagraming their every second, I fapped so many times
>>153321390I remember my brother got one for Christmas about 30 years ago but Christmas day it was 8c and raining outside so we couldn't use it for a while :(
can we see the women's version of this? why are all the webms of men you faggots?
>>153322002Link
>>153322018Do you know where you are my guy ?
>>153322018Make fun of two dudes buttfucking each other >>>> coom to some stacy thot.
>>153322026I want to cum on the gap between her teeth so much
>>153322141Imagine her blowing cumbubbles through that strait
>>153322191A dream
SEIYA! AKIRAMENAIDE!
There's a Wizard coaching Ukraine
those slowmo shots where they look like jello are the best
>>153322479I'm not coaching Ukraine
>>153322661Then it must be your arch-nemesis, the dark wizard Zurm
>>153321987The one doing most of the steering can't actually see where they're going, which is kind of fun. Obviously they also have to coordinate to shift weight properly etc.Of course, the denizens of /sp/ (who spend most of their time watching football, the actual gayest sport) cannot appreciate this.
>>153317754Turkish oil wrestling is definitely gayer.
>>153322729Gayest summer sport>>153317641Gayest winter sportEverybody happy now.
>>153317641Looks like fun to me. Just two bros going on a fun ride together.
ARE YOU READY FOR SOME SLIDE ACTION
the ice looks like shit
i'd be goin down the track haulin on my vape
>>153322825They’re saying it’s faster now
>>153322815friggin right i am
This is the most boring sport of all time
>losing position
>ninis's 6th olympic games>never won a luge race in any competition at any levelHow?
>american is the fattest. Poetry
What do I need to know to watch this?
18 vs 20? what is he talking about?
>>153322933this. the german dude will win anyway>>153322981you have never been average n anything?
>>153322981DEI athlete
>>153322981Happy for the lad though, 19th would be his best ever Olympic result.
>>153322981>How?he's neither german nor austrian
Top 4 are within a secondTop 10 are within 2 seconds
>>153322981Only 20 guys in the world do luge, it's easy to get to the olympics
>>153322994Natural insulation. Seethe more.
>>153322995go zoom and don't go boom
>>153323001I didnt realise i could be average at Olympic level
Slava ukraini
Loving the aerodynamic codpieces.
>>153322693>I INVOKE: TESTICLE TORSION
>>153323048Is there a starting order or is it random?
>>153323042why didn't you sign up then?
>>153323076fastest goes last
>>153323080Looks scary :(
>>153323080I like my non-CTE brain
>>153323076this is the final 4th run (the times are summed from all 4)it goes from the slowest to the fastest
kek
>>153323080I'm not a luger I'm a loser there's a difference.
>>153323090>>153323113Thanks niggas
>>153322141did she come up with this joke during a village orgy where she just laid there?
i think this is the funniest of all sports in olympics because it's the one that looks like you just have least control overyou just lay perfectly static in your fucking gimp outfit ,no control over anything after launch, hoping you dont dieand it looks so fucking funny too
>>153322981>>153323042Are you able to endure the 10G forces on your neck?
OH NO!!!!!!HOLY FUCK
Surprised how many tubby fellas I'm seeing here.
Why arent these ukies at the frontlines?
>>153323204reckon it’s an advantage both for more weight and padding when you crash
>>153323230They go to the front, learn to flee from fpv drones, then go to the olympics and win by running from the camera drone. It's very smart.
>>153323173>G forcesPseudoscience nonsense
>>153323204this is one of the sports where being a little tubby helps out. I'm surprised us americans are no good at it
>ukraine fatter than the americans Based slavs
>D&D enjoyerhe probably posts here
The new ice track costed about 120 Million Euros.Hosting Olympics is expensive as fuck.
Common USA W
>>153321390I had one as a kid, still in the shed. They aren’t common in Britain but my dad had one when he was a kid, so he got them for me and my brother. My grandfather was a lorry driver and got one from a lot he delivered when my dad was young.
>>153323173I meant that there are so few competitors that qualification for them is comparatively easy, and that average guys just stick around on the circuit for a long time
>>153323295cost
>5 minutes of ads every 5 minutes on NBCHow do Americans live like this
>>153323295Costed
Watch the Multiview to skip ads. Click through, when an ad starts back out to the multiview until it finishes.
>>153323355>How do Americans live like thisthey get really mad when they stop the ads to show sports
>>153323355I just post here during ad breaks. It's only frustrating now because they're interrupting live action.
>>153323353>>153323366Nothing wrong with costed
so our slovak when he wants to train he pays 45 euros for one ride
>latviahe fucked it
>>153323204Inertia is a property of matter
Maybe this will be better if the leader’s ghost is on screen
>>153323366My English is gooder than yours, you asshole.
>>153323403*Accosts you *
Schedule for the double luge? That'll be fun to watch here.
>>153323403You sound like a child saying that
>>153323461Its endearing in europeans. Absolutely vile in asians or africans.
The fuck is with that annoying whistling?
Tricky start ramp kino
>>153323493There's ice on the track
>>153323470She goes on the 12th with her bestie
sloppy topy
>>153323484The purpose of language is to convey ideas and information. If he is clearly understood, as is the case in this example, any argument is merely a matter of style
>>153323493time to play drone or ice
Why is there a bell at 10s into each run?
Can we kill whoever is blowing that fucking whistle?
>>153323575No they're protesting the ice
>krauts with guido names >guidos with kraut namesThis should be illegal.
These drones are dumb. Homosexual even. In fact, I prefer the cinematic static cameras.
>>153323608
Top 4 The only ones that matter
>>153323645you're the only homosexual here anon
>>153323546you see the 10 secs left on the start time window clock when they start
>>153323645They're literally giving me motion sickness
>>153323645I was thinking they could have a wired camera on the track following the slider, it’s a good angle
isn't the buzzing from the drone sound really distracting for the athletes?
>>153323612>krauts>white
>>153323612Two words: Holy Roman Empire
Do they start on a timer, or does the timer start when they pass pass some sensor?
>>153323709I highly doubt you can hear it at 120km/h
>>153323686>>153323546actually its just fans that brought bells.
Who ABG here?
based
>>153323732Buzzer start
maybe we really should have tried to make that olympics in Krakowbeing a host gives you free medals in most disciplines...
>>153323676
DOMEOMEArmin Zoeggler looks happier than he ever did on track lol
>>153323720Neither holy nor Roman. Curious.
Du WIRST Rodelröhre gucken und du WIRST die germanische Dominanz genießen!
imagine if the german crashes after 3 rounds of dominating
It's looking good Germanic bros.
>>153323807Why wasn't it holy?
>>153323807Nor an empire
>>153323732sensor
>>153323761The Austrian and Italian are both Germans as well though.

>top ten all German Austrian or ItalianDo you all have tube systems through the alps or something?
Isn’t there another Fishnailer in a different sport
>>153323830Separation of church and state. As in, the nobility were in charge rather than the church
>>153323830Have you met Germans?
>WHIRRRRRRRRRRWHIRRRRRRRRRWHY ARE THEY STILL RUNNING!?
>>153324053Or are those actual whistles and what not? Am I going crazy?
>>153324027Dont forget the Italian starters are all Südtiroler who unironically speak German as their first language
>Germany wins>I used to rule the worldWhat did they mean by this?
>>1533240274th placed guy is a Latvian.
how comes the top guy doesn't fall off, is he fixed somehow?
funf fact: Langenhahn means Longcock in Germany
>>153324088Checked and you should check them too
>>153323999>middle agedHe's 26.26 is young.
>>153324123could have fooled mehe should just shave it all off really because that's just very unfortunate
>>153324028Ronald in snowboarding, no relation but they are from the same townit's a pretty common surnamealso, his wife Emily Sweeney took his name and is representing the US in luge
>>153324161Had a mate who was this bald at 22. Really does a number on a guy.
>>153324085there are fans that use whistles at the finish line
meh, more of a skeleton country really
>Langenhahnhehe, translate that to English
>>153324161he just looks like an average german
>>153317641I missed it this year. oh well, two years wait again. gonna hit up bobsled instead.
>>153324312Why do they call it skeleton anyway? I haven't seen any skellingtons in it ever.
>>153324373women's, pairs and relay are still on schedule
>>153324326He would look like an average German onions boy redditor if he had glasses.
they could have at least ironed the fuckin medal ribbons or something

>>153324086I used to think this was weird as a kd
>>153322141I mean she's kind of cute
>>153323612Usually if a Guido has a kraut name he's Jewish like philosopher Carlo Michelstaedter.

>>153317972Did they died?
>>153324406>The original skeleton sled, which gave the winter sport its name, was introduced in 1892 by an Englishman named L.P. Child. It was a revolutionary, stripped-down sled designed with a metal frame that closely resembled the structure of a human skeleton, leading to its name....so google reliably informs me. Obviously if it was invented today they'd call it TV tray
