Roller Suit

Recommended Posts

Frick, that's intense. I remember seeing this guy on tv a few years ago, nice to see he stuck with it. Although I couldn't help but imagine the mess there could've been had he hit one of those posts goin down that hill.

That is some cool shit! I would totally do that if I had the time to build a suit. That was pretty sweet when he flies by the guy on the motorcycle at the end.

I can only imagine what the people in the cars going the opposite directiong were thinking..."what the..". And sorry to say, but that guy is probably going to bite the dust doing that shit

Man, I was watching some of his other videos... That suit looks freakin sweet. It actually looks really stable too, all of his main contact points (knees/elbows/chest or back/butt/feet) are all set up with two wheels per contact point instead of just one. Because of the way he lays down the only way he could really bite it was too flip over sideways, but that is hard since there is very little inertia pushing his body that way.

Although on the other hand European roads are in general super smooth and well taken care of, so I'm not sure what would happen if he tried that somewhere around here with potholes and cracks everywhere. It would be a bumpy ride at the very least.

he better have some really special wheels - i wouldn't want to use normal roller wheels and then have one chunk half way down the hill..

the other thing i wonder is were they driving behind him in a vehicle to film him? cause if something went wrong they would probably run him over before they could stop :lol:
