      Looks like he is measuring wind speed which is why the reading is so high while he is walking/the arrow is pointing in the opposite direction he's traveling/the direction is off by a few degrees generally/the speed fluctuates at a high rate. Granted the title says his "speed" and he has a sponsored link to a GPS product so clear intent to mislead or lie. If he were really tracked from GPS the "ground speed" would represent significantly slower as you're traveling along both the X and Y plane of dimension Y increasing with incline and GPS would only represent change in X.

  • @josep.peruga

    Okay after doing some rough calculations I worked out it is actually possible he is going 100 km/h. At one point in the video he is going around 100 km/h average during 10 seconds while passing 18 ski poles in total. Rearranging the S=D/T formula we are left with D=SxT. 100 km/h in m/s is around 28 m/s so if we multiply it by 10,51 seconds (time taken to pass 18 poles) we are left with a total distance of 294,28m. Divide that by 18 and you get the average distance between poles, which is 16,34. If you have ever skied you will know that the poles are more or less this distance apart.
    So he is going 100 km/h.
    Does it look like it?
    Absolutely not. When skiing yourself you know 100 feels a lot faster and that is maybe due to the increased wind noise and adrenaline going through your body. In the video it probably doesn’t look like 100 because of how wide the track is, the smoothing of the GoPro and because you are not actually there.
    Also, the video is not synced correctly with the gopro speedometer, explaining why it said he was going 22 while walking.
    I hope this cleared a few doubts and arguments in the comments lol 😂

      When you're going at this speed it becomes much easier to pass people. They almost look like they're going in slow motion. I find the faster I go, the easier to avoid the traffic because the time in which there can be a potential collision when passing someone decreases and you don't have to predict their movements as much.

    Love the video - I was there a few days ago. Sadly you seem to miss the start of Sarenne - right turn at about 1:05 (several skiiers standing looking down the steep bit).You did Cassini and then joined Sarenne at around the 29 marker. I did the same - twice! It's hard to find the entrance. The whole valley is lovely though. I agree with most commentators - it isn't really a black, it just has a couple of tricky bits - I think its creative resort marketing. They also say it's 16km when it's more like 10 or 11km.

    Brings back some memories of working a season there years ago. To those who say it is not a black understand that it this is the best condition you will ever see the run. Nearly every time I rode it sections of it were mogul fields increasing the difficulty. Same with the le Tunnel at Alpe d'Huez, looks easy when there has been fresh snow but more often a steep field of bumps the size of buried VWs. Also note that the video doesn't show the rather flat final section of the run to the lift at the bottom.

  • @gengis737
    @gengis737 Před 2 lety +13

    Sarennes was classified black in early time when snow was not worked out, so you had to do with icy snow at the top, deep snow fields in the medium section and rocky straits down the mountain. Plus the track length. With the carterpillars, the track is rather red except for the upper section where you must not fail (cliffs on the left of the track).
    The true challenge in Huez is the Tunnel, on the right of Sarennes : you go through a tunnel piercing the rock and then straight down the mountain.

    @peterwoolston6325 Před 5 měsíci

    Thanks for sharing. For all the Americans commenting, it's marked as a black because there's a fast narrow section at the top with a steep drop off to one side and there are usually 2-3 sections that get very mogully. The reality is that most of the run is a red/blue with a long section of green at the bottom through the valley. But they have to mark the whole run as black because there's no other way around the tricky bits. On this day, however, it was nice and flat and fast.
