If a rider on a motorcycle rides backward on a prepare shifting ahead, will they keep in the identical spot? In the newest Crimson Bull clip worthy of an episode of Mythbusters, Dawid Godziek proves the reply is sure. Principally.
Calling it a world-first, Godziek’s feat was a collaboration with Prada Linea Rossa, supported by Grupa Azoty Koltar and PKP Polish State Railways. All that help was essential as a result of the aim was to journey a slopestyle course constructed on high of 10 prepare carriages shifting at a pace of 23km/h. The course featured 8 jumps, a curler, and a stair drop, which Godziek conquered on his customized Specialised bike geared up with Continental tires.
Oh, and Godziek additionally deliberate to tug off a world-first flat drop backflip down a set of stairs. No huge deal.
“At first, I practised using on the monitor whereas the prepare was parked. As soon as I felt assured, we set the prepare in movement and step by step elevated the pace. 23 kilometres per hour was the proper shifting pace to match my using pace to create the sensation of using in a single place. That impression of a frozen background may be very unusual. Navigating this course easily was rather more difficult than it seemed,” stated Godziek.
Overcoming the wind, the disorienting motion and pace of the prepare, and the trick issue itself, Godziek managed to tug off a visible spectacle that’s not like something we’ve seen.
