want to see all the specs on the track etc.. I saw the new pictures in the
latest Luge News Letter; WOW!!!!!! What is it with the Russian's building luge
tracks that start from a ski jump tower? When Duncan, Kitty, Amy and I (the Jr.
Team, LOL) went to Leningrad in 1982, we were to race on a track that was built
out of wood and literally started out of a 120 meter ski jump tower. The track
continued out over a 300 foot cliff. The track was built on telephone poles that
gradually became lower as it wound its way down. There were no nets so if you
crashed and came out of the track you would fall the 300 feet. No lie!!!! It was
the scariest track, besides IMST, that I have ever seen. Anyway, if anyone has
found a website, please share....:)
