The rules governing luge sports have been updated to enhance competition dynamics, particularly allowing lighter athletes to augment their weight with additional mass to achieve greater speed within regulated limits. This change aims to create a more level playing field, offering a competitive edge to those who can manage their weight effectively while adhering to the set standards. Furthermore, each competitor’s compliance will be strictly monitored, emphasizing the technological specifications required for both solo and double sled teams.

Athletes competing in solo events will be evaluated based on their combined times from four runs, while double teams will only undergo two runs, showcasing the strategic differences in competition formats. The importance of adhering to equipment standards is highlighted—technical inspections will be conducted on sleds belonging to podium finishers and randomly selected competitors to ensure fair competition. Any infringements, such as exceeding glove spike regulations or using aerodynamic-enhancing clothing, will result in disqualification, underscoring the sport's strict adherence to fair play.

The luge competitions scheduled for February include several runs, with specific timings for men's singles events. Athletes weighing up to 90 kilograms are permitted to add up to 13 kilograms of extra weight under their clothing, while women in a different weight category have similar regulations. The updates also introduce informal guidelines for track operators, ensuring that turns are named in an orderly manner. These measures aim to preserve the integrity of the sport and enhance fan engagement during Olsen Olympic Luge broadcasts on LSM.
