Extreme ground sports #7 Street luge

Hello everyone

Street luge is a sport that was started by Californian children who were bored with ordinary skateboarding and decided to start sliding off the low hills lying on a skateboard on the stomach. Soon after, people riding professionally on boards noticed that in this way you can achieve much higher speed and they started to do it themselves.

Originally, this sport did not seem like bad until irresponsible people started continuation it on steep mountains or highways, not looking at the risk of collision or not noticing the vehicle and hitting the skateboard driver. 

Currently, this sport is considered to be extemal,the growers are equipped with protectors and a helmet, and the skateboard is longer, similar to the long-board one. Beyond that, it is also worth equipping with solid shoes and leather gloves. In 2016, a world record of 164 km / h fell.



See you later next time
