The Rogers Bothers found this great practice hill a few months ago and we've been
regular visitors even since. We had a chance recently to capture some of
the action thanks to Kent Kochheiser - Mr. Photographer.
The luge train was usually led by Darren Lott on his new (yes another one) wooden
luge (well it's sorta like a luge). He kicked our ass all day.
Dave and Dave. I had my moments but the luge racing (sorry, practice) was
usually just a train ride to the bottom. We still had fun.
See what I mean.
Once in a while we would form a pack. L to R: Dave, Me, John. Bill, Darren and
Rob.
I got a new nickname on this trip. Fat & Dirty. Seriously, I need
to lose weight and get me some new leathers. It's getting embarrassing.
Here's a close-up of Bill, Darren and Rob. Rob gave Darren a run for the
money on the luge.
The butt boarding tended to be a lot closer. Packs were the norm.
John is in the back filming from his luge.
The Rogers Brothers are getting ready to storm the stand-up world. They
typically hit the low 50's on this hill. With a video camera no less!
Ok, this has got to be illegal. Anti-gravity luge? Sorry, I'm not playing
anymore.
