The Real Skifi crew is always pushing the limits of what’s possible on skis. From longboard to rail to longboard (while on skis) to wild rotational force experiments, they truly are the mad scientists of skiing.
This recent stunt shared to their Instagram isn’t difficult to comprehend, but it is a wild concept to come up with. It’s like a ski zip-line. Frankly I’d like to see it done over much further distances. Really test what’s possible with this invention.
One comment and the caption pose a very important question: does this count as a darkslide? For those who don’t know, a darkslide is a skateboarding trick that involves grinding across an object with the skateboard upside down. The grip tape side is down, and the boarder is on the side withe the wheels and trucks. Since in this case the top sheet side is the side grinding across the object, I’d say this counts as a darkslide, but that’s just my opinion.
