I have a funny feeling those GPS goggles aren't very accurate because my dad's buddy bought some and clocked himself going at 55mph, and I know I ski a lot faster than him, and I don't think I'm getting over 55mph on scratch ghettos I never wax. My dad also wanted to see how fast he could go on our old snowlerblades and he clocked in at like 40mph riding some hill at Big Bear which doesn't even make sense.

Side note, I've been around 35mph on a skateboard (/claim), and it seemed way faster than i've ever been on skis.

Also wat is a km.

the fastest i remember going was one day straightlining a run hitting a gnoll and launching a good thirty feet but only a couple a feet off the ground. did not expect for it to happen, lost control of my feet and when i hit the ground i was basically a 200 pound bullet sliding down the mountain, launched off the side of the trail and landed just before the trees in a ton of powder and sat there trying to comprehend what happened. yah you can call me ricky bobby
