Speed-Riding

Parachutes aren’t just for skiing up the mountain, they’re good for hauling ass down, too.

Ben Saunders points out new videos from Acro Base actors François Bon and Antoine Montant descending the north face of the Eiger. On skis. With parachutes. They call it speed-riding.

Hope they wore their rock skis.
