    I wonder if improvements in ski technology over the decades is somehow making it easier to be bad. Turning modern skis on a groomed run is effortless, and maybe that inhibits balance and strength development.

    this looks way less scary than it probably is in real life. in KItzbühel, even some "normal" slopes (that aren't prepared for races) are more like ice and in the shade, you can't see it, and once you feel what is going on, you're game over already. as soon as you are trying to do anything apart from going "schuss" (straight), if you try to initiate a turn or break, the ground is pulled from under you like a rug and you don't stop falling down or sliding down the hill at speed for a scary time.

  • @misssophie6515

    1:25 it is ridiculous that you would need to tell this to an adult, but nobody should be even allowed on this super icy, steep slope without a helmet. my worst fall ever was in Kitzbühel, not on the Streif, but another black piste. It looked normal at first and I am a cautious skier who doesn't speed recklessly ever, but as I came over an edge the piste suddenly turned into like a vertical skating rink and it felt like my skis were jerked from underneath me. so icy I just slid over it sideways faster than I could go straight if I had wanted to, then I hit the ground. the buildup of speed was so immense on the not-ending ice that I shot down half the slope like a puck before I came to a stop and god was a I glad I was wearing a helmet and back protector, as I was facing spine forward during most of it. after I came to a stop there was dead silence for a moment and the people in the chairlift overhead were screaming, asking if I was ok. I somehow thought, ok I can feel all limbs and signalled I was fine, but that was the biggest shock ever. seeing the streif iced and prepared for the race on photos gives me the chills. this isn't sport anymore, it is sensationlism.

    I was skiing this bit last week. Trust me, if you stand on top, it looks 4 times steeper than here. It's almost as if goes down vertical for the first 5 meters and then slowly gets less steep. The funny thing is: if you see it from below in real, it does not look so steep, and if you see it on TV it looks like nothing. To actually ski down this whole track in "Schuss", requires INHUMANE STRENGHT in the legs! It's not only matter of skill and guts, but also power. Often I see people standing in front of steep sections of the track, jaws dropped in utter disbelief that any person is so crazy to actually JUMP down into the abbys. The Streif really is the Holy Grail of Speed skiing ⛷️ - you have to see it in real to understand how crazy this event actually is! 😱 🤯

    Hard pass...first, every last pro downhiller is a deranged maniac who had that first brush at 5yrsold with getting thrown in the back seat while coming across the fall line and decided it was the greatest feeling on earth, then never turn more than 2degeees away from it for the next two decades, and second, my skis are tuned once a year and they're fine, but pro downhill gear, which I've tried out once, is 95% camber of 6ft knife blades you could cut your apres steak with. Birds of Prey one time with my college girlfriend and NEVER AGAIN. Even run of the mill high school downhillers are insane. The speed and the lines and the margin for error is nuts.

    In Germany we also have similar regulations and until now I always thought they were made to protect the researcher. Essentially, after working 8 years in an institute with temporary contracts, which gives you no financial stability in life, the institute is forced to give you a permanent contract or let you go. Quite often they'll give you a permanent contract. If not it might be better to move on...

    Wenn man sich ansieht, wie die Profis runterrutschen, wenn sie gestürzt sind, glaube ich fast, dass das Geheimnis ist, dass sie immer auf den Kanten fahren, anstatt auf ihnen zu rutschen. Sobald gedriftet wird, ist es aus - auch bei den Profis, ist zumindest mein Eindruck. Natürlich haben die noch viel krassere Kanten, aber ich denke das GEheimnis ist längs mit der Kante ins Eis zu schneiden anstatt quer darüberzurutschen.

    going fast I can understand. You have to be brave. However, usually it is not possible as hobby skier unless you are one of the very first to go down the slope in the morning and you need good sunlight to see the surface clearly. Usually there are piles of snow at random places. And other people obviously. I'm only a hobby skier but my friends and I usually pass other people on the slopes and we like to ride down in one go so I consider myself advanced. I've never been skiing in Kitz because I heard it is too crowded. I have seen however Obertauern Gamsleiten 2 (in a terrible condition) and Ischgl Lange Wand (in good condition) I can say it is possible to ride them in good condition but it is very dangerous if you are not strong, know the slope and generally don't know what you're doing. I think everything over 80kmh starts to be very dangerous and the moment you start to fly over hills it becomes an entirely different class. Most of the required skills are obviously not possible to train for a hobby skier as you need closed off slope. Basically, you need to be drilled by parents and teachers from a young age to be serious. Than you can join a sports club and work yourself up. And then you can take on the Streif. However, if you go skiing for only 3 slopes and then go for apreski to get wasted you're out of luck
