Anders backe - 128 km/h switch

[jokorvalde]

Anders Backe skied down Vikersund ski flying hill switch, and gained 128 km/h to night (norwegian tim)! He made a new world record, thats sick

 

[RudyGarmisch]

80mph switch?

 

[jokorvalde]

Yes!

 

[Blurst]

That would be absolutely terrifying.

 

[kvan]

Going that fast forward would be scary enough

 

[Elg]

going down that hill in the first place would be scary enough

 

[jiberishman]

go norway

 

[Orrin]

WHAAAT!! That's insane!

[ALFYBOI]

Hahaha... When the reporter comes to talk with him right after he goes down. Anders says "yeah, so that went fast, I guess..."

 

[k-fred]

i thought it would be a little more exiting then that lol...

 

[malonius_funk]

holy fuck. gotta go to class. threads.

 

[Casual.]

well. that video was not exciting at all.

 

[BuSkiz]

.

 

[fucking]

anyone else think he didn't reach 80 mph and that it was extremely dumb?

 

[skiEER]

i think anyone could do that

 

[Trace.]

Still scary as shit I mean 80mph is fast as shit

 

[DIX~]

Only you fucking

 

[TheBlueMtSkier]

Yah, it didn't' look hard at all.

 

[Elg]

lol that hill is waaay steeper than it seems from that POV camera!

 

[Barefootin_Fiend]

seriously? i'd bomb the fuck out of that thing.

 

[jreilly]

that was not impressive

 

[NJski94]

id love to see someone try a something off the jump.

 

[whoa-dere]

Anders slayed some urban in being there too! What a boss

 

[Mr.Turtle]

that hill looks perfect for bombing

 

[whegrodamus.]

threads for when I'm not at school...

 

[icon1234]

Tanner Hall hitting chads gap switch was more impressive than that imo. And I mean just skiing the actual in run of chads not the jump portion.

But hey pretty cool new world record I suppose.

 

[DERS.]

aint shit..

my top speed according to mah ski trax app is 81.4 mph (forwards).

 

[Baskilla]

Tanner went like 60 mph switch in the BC going into Chads Gap and then cab 9'd it.... just sayin

 

[ohboy]

Ski Trax App for iPhone is trippy...

 

[Heart]

haha this, looks like fun

 

[Ben.]

51 mph. he shoulda been going about 53. lololololol

 

[Holte]

An 80mph revert would be really scary.

 

[Baskilla]

^hehehe

 

[Willgum]

I didnt know anders skied

But really thats sick

 

[Anathema]

if you fell, your head would whiplash so hard it'd detach probably come off. scary shit..

 

[dmc12380]

Bombing river run at keystone, or the trail after the park all the way to the bottom seems about that same size/steepness.

if so ive gone 80mph then

 

[crab_pretzel]

haha same, but this is still sick

 

[Steezy_Butter]

That man has some big coconuts...

 

[annex_]

been close to 128km forwards. but going switch would be sketch

 

[whoa-dere]

that actually looks kinda like him

 

[Mr.DarthVader]
