Description: We decided to take a day off from snowboarding in New Zealand to go and play in Queenstown for the day. This is a quick clip of us hitting up the Luge at the top of the Gondola in Queenstown. This is NOT extreme. It was a bit silly and heaps of fun. I realised I didn't have a helmet or goggle mount when we got to the luge, so I just jammed it in the chin strap of my helmet between the strap and my head. That is my beard on the left of frame... Still, it is an amazing view from up there.

Man, that looks fun. We don't have anything like that around Seattle... heck, we had something like that when I was a kid (but it was in concrete/fiberglass halfpipes) but these days in the USA, the very first wipeout would result in a lawsuit so huge they'd shut it down!
One more reason for me to visit NZ, I guess :D
Looks like a blast!
hehe. yeah, NZ seems to be land of the no-lawsuit. Most of the stuff you can do in Queenstown you would never be able to do anywhere else. Part of the reason it is so much fun!
waaaaw it could be a very great spot for longboarding!!!
Another reason I want to move to NZ.
Nice vid.
Weeeeeeeee!
