To appreciate the speed, see it in person!! Luge and skeleton events take place at the Verizon Sports Complex and event schedules can be found on the calendar of events. Skeleton:
What a great name for a sport!! Lie down on a sled that looks like a cafeteria tray. Put your chin about six inches above the ice and roar down the course at 75 to 80 miles per hour. Everybody does it!! Lake Placid's Jimmy Shea is Olympic gold medalist as well as past world and Winter Goodwill Games champion. Check out World Cup Skeleton action December 6, 2002.

    Olympice Preview: Skeleton
    Luge, which takes its name from the French word for sled, is one of the fastest Olympic sports, with riders exceeding 90 mph.
    The action will be even faster than normal in Salt Lake City, where the Olympic Park track, which consists of 17 curves over 4,318 ft, is recognized as the fastest luge run in the world.
    There are three divisions in the luge competition: men's singles, women's singles, and doubles. Luge doubles can be contested by either sex but the teams are almost always made up of two men.
    The singles format for Olympic luge is unique. Instead of the usual format of two timed runs in one day, athletes make four runs down the course over two days of competition. Men and women compete on the same track, but the women start the race at a point farther down the track.
    The doubles competition, in which one rider lies on top of the other, uses the more traditional format. Each team makes two timed runs during the one-day competition. The team with the fastest total time is the winner.

      Winter Olympic Sports (Track) by Marko Peric When I rated Winter Olympic Sports last week, I only rated snow sports, mainly to keep the list at a reasonable size. But when I look at the remaining eight sports, that's still a long list. So I'm breaking up the ice sports from the track sports. Now, I know that technically the track is lined with ice, so they could also be considered ice sports, but I don't feel like doing a rating of that many sports at one time. So here's my rating of winter Olympic track sports. Bobsleigh: Everyone calls this event bobsled, but technically it's bobsleigh. I've always considered a sleigh to be something that is pulled by a horse and sung about at Christmastime, whereas a sled is something that goes downhill under the power of gravity. And this event uses gravity to get the sleds going at up to 150 km/h, which I have to say is a whole lot faster than I was ever able to get going on a toboggan. The problem with the sport is that apart from the driver, once the start is over, everyone else is ballast, particularly in the four man event. Having highly trained athletes act as ballast is Bad Luge : Jerry Seinfeld commented on luge suggesting a new sport, Involuntary Luge, where unsuspecting members of the public are taken against their will and forced to race down a luge run. Myself, I'm envisioning that Fat Old Guys In Three Piece Suits Luge would be even more entertaining. Of course, the Germans wouldn't go for that, I'm sure, and the Germans have dominated luge for years. The image of a stout German clad in Lycra travelling at 140 km/h down an iced track is somewhat disturbing. The image of two Germans lying one atop the other both clad in Lycra travelling at this speed is downright

    http://btc.montana.edu/olympics/physbio/default.htm
    Introduction
    Many Winter Olympic sports are greatly dependent on technique, engineering, and/or gravity. For example, during luge, while gravity is accelerating the sled up to 80 mph down the track, the slider must use good technique to steer the sled and minimize air resistance. To excel in these type of sports, it is helpful to have a full appreciation of physics and biomechanics. Physics is a broad field which includes mechanics, electricity, magnetism, optics, etc., and biomechanics is the study of the mechanics of living systems. In the module we will use the sports of luge and figure skating to teach you four basic mechanical concepts: linear kinematics, linear dynamics, projectile motion, and conservation of angular momentum. In addition, we have developed a glossary which defines and illustrates all the physics terminology you will need to complete this module.
