Skiing the World’s Longest Rail | Jesper Tjäder

Swedish freeskier Jesper Tjäder set his sights on breaking the Guinness World Record for the longest rail slide on skis, which was previously held by legendary freeskier Tom Wallisch. Now after six years and 127 attempts, Tjäder wrote freeskiing history by smashing Wallish’s record after completing a rail measuring 154,49 meters aka 506 feet and 28 inches.
Let your favourite KZbin host@steepsteep take you backstage as the Olympic Bronze medalist takes on the world's longest metal pipe in Åre, Sweden.
“Being the official Guinness World Record holder feels pretty cool. I have dreamt about it since I was a kid. This rail was a hard challenge, and my guess was that it would take about 525 attempts, but it went way easier than I expected.” says Jesper Tjäder.
Earlier in May, work began in Stendalen in Åre, Sweden, to build and implement the world's longest rail. After the just over 162 meter (531 feet) long metal rail was in place, it took three days and 127 attempts until the new Guinness World Record was a fact, 154.49 meters or 506 feet 10.28 inches, on May 9th at 5:23pm CEST. Tjäder jumped on the rail at a speed of about 77 kilometers per hour (47.85 mph) and landed with the leading ski on the rail eight meters in.

[@emilgjeset7476]

Completly true

[@3x5WLeague]

All of a sudden you see the piste machinist slowing down next to you, he looks vaguely familiar, but you cannot pin him right away. He rolls down the window, it's Eric Koston, and he shouts "DO A KICKFLIP!" as you abandon your camera and stomp the crispest one of your life.

[@skate_health7319]

Lmao came here to say this hahah

His enthusiasm put me in such a good mood

[@Felix-hx7kx]

Hope your doing well jesper, thats a lot of pressure to put urself under and to consistently perform at the level you do. Well done. Its nice to see nick getting some more recognition from the skiing community

I like how he shouted out Tom Wallisch. Very classy move as Tom progressed the sport arguably more than any other freeskier. Respect to Jesper.
