In Primorye, an amateur skier was able to accelerate to extreme speed, moving down the slope on Obzornaya hill in Arsenyev. Judging by all appearances, the exremale was preparing to carry out a check in order to film him on a mobile camera, reports "Vesti: Primorye" with reference to @arstv.
The author of the video, Maxim Mandrika, drives off the track and, as can be seen in the breathtaking shots, he catches up with another “steep” alpine skier, who has reached a high speed.
According to eyewitnesses, the speed of the skier could exceed more than 120 km / h, while he easily maneuvered between other lovers of ski slopes, walking along the mountain at a quiet pace.
By the way, on the downhill skiing athletes can reach a speed of 200 km / h, which is higher than the speed with a free fall (on average - 190 km / h).
