12 road gaps in 555 meter descent. Damn. Check out this sweet little edit from Red Bull featuring Bene Mayr and Markus Eder as they pick their way down this heavy duty switchback on Stelvio Pass in South Tyrol, Italy:
“Road Gaps” introduces the freestyle skiing of Bene Mayr and Markus Eder, who join the great line of ski pros such as Candide Thovex, Jon Olsson, Jesper Tjäder, and Aksel Lund Svindal. For the first time ever they are taking on several road gaps in the Stilfser Joch National Park and turning the streets into one big playground. They jumped 12 road gaps over the street conquering 20 features – from small jumps and rail slides on snow cats to big jumps and massive gaps with a few grass landings.A terrain so steep and narrow that asks for freeskier pro skills who can descend an altitude of 555 meters! The stunning clips shooted in only five days at the end of the season in May 2018 wouldn’t have been possible without the exceptional freeride and jib skills of German Bene Mayr and South Tyrol local Markus Eder.”
