Swiss skateboarder Simon Stricker just did 2.17km with an average speed of 31.5 km/h while performing a manual. On a street skateboard!
The Bernina Pass is better known as a gateway for skiers but the Swiss route acted as the backdrop for a skateboard record. Swiss competitor Simon Stricker hit speeds of up to 45km/h as he shattered the previous best for a manual. At an average speed of 31.5 km/h, Stricker needed to achieve a distance of 1.5 kilometres on two wheels alone (hence, with his skateboard tipped upwards), facing a perilous balancing act for the duration of the record attempt.
