Skating behind car at 68km/h // Felix Rijhnen with 125mm wheels on Cyprus roads

[@Buehler1997]

8:17 when you're going 60 and the speed limit is 30 and you don't have breaks.

[@nubman0]

We skaters can always brake. You are wrong only about this because skates can be used to slow down. If you state that his speed is illegal or braking is inefficient, I would say that you are right.

[@beachsidebooy]

its always you can break by making it as steps or finally you can do slide if necessary and you have special wheels can slide with higher speeds

[@alfaalkaaf5335]

the only literal brake in inline skate is the heel brake. brake itself considered as technique such as T stop/brake, sliding, powerstop, powerslide, magic slide, parallel slide, etc. the most easiest and noob friendly way brake is butt brake. when you fall behind and using your butt to brake.

Thanks 😊

[@Sk8london]

That’s crazy but enormously cool. Can’t believe it’s all human power. Have you ever crashed at that speed? So scary. Again very well done

[@FelixRijhnen1]

Unfortunately yes - it’s not pretty!

[@Sk8london]

@@FelixRijhnen1 sorry to hear but unfortunately that happens, I’ve had a few myself but not at those speeds. I just found your channel am totally hooked on watching lol. Just got back from a session in central London now...

[@zroman8292]

Love it bro.. m also learning inline skate..I love it so much

[@beachsidebooy]

roller blading one of the best sport have do it and still doing but the unfotunetly its ignored sport

[@specialk22tt]

...in the US.

[@exa0247]

Agree, I've tried different sports but inline speed skating is different, it's like a drug, very addictive to skate fast

[@davidgerescher5527]

You are a brave man Felix.

[@DElise-wk9qr]

Oh my goch

[@nuttyl283]

Oh my god!! very fast!!

[@VoyagerGC]

you goooooo Felix :) 10x for sharing

[@MazurskiMaratonRolkowy2020]

wow :-) bravo !!!

[@dlococo6124]

Wow nice video... Really hard 😁. What about to show this in SloMo !?!

[@YorosumaGyokku]

7:57 Do you have any videos explaining on how to reach this level of speed? It's literally superspeed but on skates, like how?

[@jakubkamenicek6219]

I think it is about being very good at double-push + have very powerful main strokes while being able to still keep up higher skating frequency + skating on large wheel setups like 4 x 110mm or 3 x 125mm + having really good/fast bearings in them :) But I also asked Felix about this in one of his comment sections about this because I am intrigued to know and my personal best is only around 55 km/h thus far (straight surface, almost now wind, without any bike/car in front).

[@exa0247]

Road surface, best wheels, ceramic bearings and the most important the perfect push technique

[@YorosumaGyokku]

8:08 literally a speedster. Like what old sensei died giving you his secret teachings?

[@iluvbiggirlz420]

This is so cool !!!

[@valentgalax8287]

8:10 hisciste 60KM/H que marca usas?

[@sakurakkonut816]

Can you please provide diagram picture of push direction, please? I can't speed over 28km/hr on double push. I might did something wrong. Thank you.

[@chapjr5]

You need to keep working on your technique. Weight lifting is beneficial. Your elevation, wind speed, barometric pressure, road conditions etc all play a part. Remember, these guys do extreme training and have probably been competing since children. So it may not be fair to compare yourself to them.

[@philwelch2447]

Check out Pascal Briand's vlog, good advice on speed technique and a great chat with Felix and Bart.

[@FERNANDOSOUSALEAL]

Parabéns! Muito bom! Nice!

[@karpmaster]

Hi, In 2 month am visiting cyprus. Where are the best places for speed skating over there? Eyal

[@FelixRijhnen1]

Basically you just need to find a flat open road. This video was taken in front of the Aldiana Hotel.

[@karpmaster]

Thanks

[@davidd.7036]

How do you manage car exhaust gas?

[@FelixRijhnen1]

David D. I guess just suck it up for a few minutes...

[@XAnAse7en]

Waoww...68!!...are u kidding me?!...can i speed with whels 80mm?

[@FelixRijhnen1]

With 86mm you would definitely struggle 😅

[@DroKen]

Nice! but how do you break (Fast) if something happen at that speed? wouldn't be better to have a propper break?

[@taven2164]

Brakes are typically more dangerous then helpful as they throw you off balance, provide minimal stopping power, and removed wheels from the ground providing less contact points to the ground and more potential for a fall. At this speed, honestly, don't fall is the correct answer here. I would expect him to ditch it off the road and stay standing as long as he could through the dirt and allow the ground to break his fall instead of the road.

[@YurkerYT]

There are 3 famous techniques. T stop, magic slide and parallel slide. Which one to use depends on the circumstances.

[@onlycorner5565]

@@YurkerYT With an suporting boot you can come to an stop 0 KM/h with Tstop first and magicstoping in arout 8 to 10 meters i think

woo que adrenalina

Wow

Beautiful pictures! But you're not going very fast yet !! 😁😝😝😁😁

Good

Excel-lent.

It appears that even for the top skater like Felix, his right leg recovers not as good as his left leg :)

[@ashrraydaga2876]

He is going down hill ... Dats y he can achieve such a speed with easy

[@sethraag]

Shut up dude

[@johnalamariz2491]

Too scary to fall on that speed 30 to 40 kph tjats the only speed i can, wth complete gear:)

[@FelixRijhnen1]

Yeah better don’t crash haha

[@XAnAse7en]

I watching but i scary

[@onlycorner5565]

human propulsion thanks to double push .what you think how effective (energy expenditure) is an double push over 10k compared to an normal person on Bicycle

[@FelixRijhnen1]

Edgar Marrakech no idea - sorry!

[@alfonsocano106]

the guy is simply skating ok, who or what guarantees, he is making 68 k per hour??????

[@andreasvinter-hviid4684]

First of all he is skating behind a car, which has a speedometer. But actually I am quite sure that the watch he is wearing is a GPS watch, which records the speed distance and time you see at the bottom of the screen.

[@alfonsocano106]

buuuuu that is an article of faith hahah I could do the same and post something on the bottom of the screen!

[@calmarcalmar]

@Alfonso: you are right, it's pretty clear, he has only about 20km/h .. the video was ware fast-forward.. that's why he seems to have an incredible speed.

[@mirage2nr771]

This guy simply skates a marathon (42k) in less than an hour. 42.5/43km/h on average for an hour, I think he can do 68 for a while, with the draft of the car ;)

[@onlycorner5565]
