Just watched Fuel TV's coverage of NPG last year. I'm so stoked for this year's! Congratz on placing 3rd man :)

[FurlongTHP]

Thanks man. Go now and keep spreading the stoke! But most importantly, keep the faith and ride hard.

[williamukuk]

hey furlong, just wondering, how have you mounted the camera?

[FurlongTHP]

hey will. go to my website, i wrote a review of the vio pov 1.5 with photos. i used the star mount provided with the unit, it has magnets. you just stick the other magnetic mount on the inside of the helmet shell. the magnets are a brilliant idea. easy on easy off! no sticking velcro on your helmet that has a nice paint job!

is that a new luge from roger bros?? or did you just make some improvements on your old one??

nice video btw :)

[FurlongTHP]

That is my new Rogers Bros pegless luge with fairings. I got it in April 2008, after NPG last year. I first raced this new luge in South Africa in Nov / Dec last year.

The luge that you saw when we met in February this year is my old Rogers Bros luge. It was a pegged luge originally, but I sawed off the pegs before NPG last year where I raced it. The old luge is a pegless now. The old luge has a longer wheelbase than the new luge.

Thanks and keep watching this space! :-)

[FurlongTHP]

Hey there Fendy! Ching told me about you. She wasn't even sure if you're Malaysian! This road is a bit gnarly, even for luge, but I can take you to Janda Baik where I've riden it standing up. When are you coming back to Malaysia? Ching and G mentioned that they'll be back this December.

[effghan]

haha I've only lived in malaysia for the first 2 years of my life and have been abroad ever since. I'll probably go back sometime in Dec/Jan. Should I bother to bring back leather and fullface?

[guitarchick2182]
