The world's fastest man on a pair of skis just got faster,[url=http://www.atschuh.com/nike-free-run-38]nike free[/url].
On Monday Italian Simone Origone broke his own speed skiing world record as he reached 252.4 kilometers per hour on the Chabrieres slopes in the French Alps -- an achievement confirmed by organizers France Ski de Vitesse,[url=http://www.atschuh.com/nike-free-run-38]billig nike free[/url].
With a 1,220 m slope that has a maximum gradient of 98% and an average of 52.5%, Chabrieres is not for the faint-hearted.
Traveling at over 250 km/h is a privilege usually reserved for Formula One drivers,[url=http://www.atschuh.com/nike-free-run-38]nike free run[/url], yet speed skier Origone was equipped with just an aerodynamic helmet to increase streamlining and a ski suit made from air-tight latex to reduce wind resistance.
Origone's one nod to safety was wearing a back protector in case of a crash as he threw himself down the one kilometer track.
Origone has been the fastest speed skier on the globe since April 2006, having set a then-new world record of 251.4 km/h at Les Arcs.
Bastien Montes of France was Origone's closest challenger on Monday,[url=http://www.atschuh.com/]nike schuhe[/url], but even the Frenhcman's new personal best of 248.105 km/h was someway short of the Italian's 2006 world record,[url=http://www.atschuh.com/nike-air-max-33]billig air max[/url], let alone his latest one.

"Simone Origone is the greatest champion of all time,[url=http://www.atschuh.com/nike-air-max-33]nike air max[/url], he is the only person to hold the record for two ski speeds in France -- Les Arcs and Vars Chabrieres. This is a historic day," technical director of Speed Masters Philippe Billy told Vars.com.
The 34-year-old Origone -- a ski instructor, mountain guide and rescuer by day -- only took up the discipline in 2003, having given up downhill skiing in 1999.
"Now that I have twice won the world record, I can say that I have made history,[url=http://www.atschuh.com/nike-shox-34]nike shox[/url]," Origone told Vars.com. "It is important for me and for speed skiing."
