Talk about one brave soul 
Brave is not exactly the word I would use to describe him! 
At 29 seconds into the video, the guy passes by two skiersā¦
Their thoughts: āW.T.F.?ā 
My thoughts: āYou crazy, man!ā
I always want to know who the first person to try this is and are they still living?
Is the link still good?
i just checked and it worked for me.
Turns out that there are a lot of crazy folks doing this kind of thing. A couple of years ago there was a āraceā at Northstar (Lake Tahoe) where skydivers wearing skis ran through a set of pylons, initially by controlling their parachute and then, after hitting the snow and dropping the chute, on skiis. What surprised me was how many entrants there were in the race.
I first read entrants as entrails. Which would not actualy be all that surprising.
Amazing controlā¦20, maybe 15 ft off the surface at terminal velocityā¦wow
Not a long life-expectancy to that profession!
Iād imagine their agents donāt negotiate salaries with their sponsors; they negotiate life insurance policy face value.
This āsportā is amazingly similar to base jumping, for which there in an online list of 114 fatalities, the latest of which was barely two weeks ago.
