Is that Le Col done in a straight line? Did you measure the speed?

It does not makes a sense :-) One day this guy could share the title "Dickhead of the day" with that Australian guy who rode Volkl renntiger with very high speed...

Great vid, fun to watch. Maybe the skier you almost killed had a different opinion.

What were the rules when you two did the racing? Or just no rules at all? If it was about who gets down first, why did not you just straightline? The slope does not look steed / fast at all.


Cheers

I know that you are a good extreme carver. No carve in video!

Yes. No carve. Of course I rode only at snowboard base.

It's pretty much off-topic, but watching these videos I think you'll get yourself banned from that small slope..... unless you are the owner.....
