@chubbspeterson - Yeah I'm going to believe TWoods on this one. The flex point of those skis very much could be supporting the weight of the skier. I'd love to see video, but I totally see 100% legit on this one.
@Mr.Bishop, look at his body position, his knees are bent and his back is hunched over what could he possibly be getting leverage from. his center of gravity is behind where his skis are flexing - im not doubting that a press this flexed is possible but not in that body position haha
It's shot with a 16mm FF Fisheye on a 1.5x crop sensor body, so it's not super distorted, but still exaggerated perspective. The skis are a LOT closer to the lens then they look (I wasn't even shooting with the camera up to my face, but holding it out so I could pull it away as he passed by.) Things closer to the lens + closer to the center of the frame appear closer, things towards the edges of the FOV of the lens are going to appear further away.
Trust me, this was like 12 foot long butter box, he held a press through.
