I’ve been bungee jumping before and it’s definitely a spooky experience. I’ve never had much of a problem with heights, but sitting on the edge of a platform and being told to just jump did some things to my stomach… I definitely don’t think I’d have it in me to SKI off a platform hoping a rubber chord would stop me from falling to my death. That’s just too much effort for my mind to actually commit to it. That being said, this does look pretty cool, and someone could probably convince me to give it a shot with enough effort…
This “ride” is located at Tignes Station de Ski in France and features a 30 meter ramp (just under 100 feet) and a 40 meter drop (just over 130 feet), following which you’re locked into a zip line and returned to earth. Thrill seekers are allowed to use skis, a snowboard, a bike, or a sled. Would you do it?
