Alpine Luge marks a technological milestone in winter sports – comparable to the introduction of carving skis in skiing. It combines maneuverability, control, speed, and riding enjoyment in a new, dynamic design that nevertheless remains true to the classic recreational sled. Thanks to its universal design, it can be used on both snow and ice, has standardized, inexpensive runners, and thus opens up access to (racing) luge for new nations. The product creates the basis for a modern, accessible winter experience and positions itself as a bridge between recreational and competitive sports.
The Alpine Luge Sprint Slalom is a luge discipline in which athletes race through a set of gates on ski slopes. In two rounds, the athlete with the fastest total time is determined. The maximum duration of a run is around 25 seconds.
The first run starts at 11:00 a.m. The second run starts at 1:00 p.m.
The new alpine luge sprint slalom format is being tested at World Cup level on the Jenner. Further formats and implementation in the World Cup are planned for the coming winter seasons.
The toboggan park offers the ideal environment for learning how to use the new toboggan safely and dynamically. It defines the basic concept of a standardized and experience-oriented tobogganing infrastructure in winter sports destinations. The toboggan park was developed by the International Luge Federation (FIL). On up to four different tracks (braking track, curve track, parallel track, speed track), tobogganing maneuvers can be taught methodically and learned in a playful way by young and old alike.
