This is some helmet-cam footage of skier Leonhard Rombach competing in the Inferno Rennen 2025 downhill race, the longest in the world, and reaching speeds over 60MPH in the process. There’s also a brief uphill climb around 5:30. Honestly, I saw a lot of opportunities to shave some valuable seconds
This is a video from the recent X-Games on Buttermilk Mountain in Aspen, Colorado of Italian skier Miro Tabanelli and Japanese snowboarder Hiroto Ogiwara landing the first 2340° spins. Just like the title says, that’s 6.5 rotations, or TRUE STORY: 5.5 more rotations than I completed before breaking my arm.
This is a video of ice dancer Lewis Gibson and a partner performing a synchronized routine while wearing giant ice skate costumes. That’s…something. Something I wish I’d thought of earlier so those 300,000+ likes were mine! “Can you even skate?” CAN I EVEN SKATE? Of course I can skate! But

This is a video of a powder cloud avalanche tearing down the trails of Mount Timpanogos at Sundance Resort in Utah while a group of skiers and snowboarders watch. Per one dude, “What the heck, bro?! That’s one of the biggest avalanches I’ve ever seen in my life!” Wow, just
This is some drone footage of a climber successfully summiting a rocky, snow-covered peak. It’s beautiful, sure, but I’d be lying if I said that looks like a good time to me. That looks cold and dangerous. And while I’m all about danger, I don’t do the cold. I do
