We've been given the opportunity to make a freeskiing attempt for the Guinness World Records! There's no guidelines on what we can propose, so we've decided to open it up to the community. It doesn't matter if it's a crazy attempt on a massive feature by a superpro, or the Newschoolers community coming together for the world's longest backflip train...

Anything could potentially get green lit, so let's hear your best ideas! Note that we only have three hours to propose this, so get your replies in ASAP.

I'd like to see someone take a stab at biggest quarterpipe air. We'd need massive funding to do it, but I could cut that pipe like a motherfucker.

only potential problem is that if someone fucks up, it would be a long process to get everyone up to the top and have to do it again

I'd like to see a longest-distance backflip. build a mellow but huge step up with a crazy long landing and have a bunch of pros try to out-do each other with how far they can send a backflip (or superman-front…)


or we could go more internet related than skiing and try to have the fastest growing internet forum. set a date and time for someone to make a thread and have as many members as possible post once in it

really though it has to be longest rail cleaned

but not boxes... boxzilla is really cool, don't get me wrong, but it's quite a different thing to jump around on boxes as opposed to just clearing a super long round rail

i agree with this. just get the most people as possible on a massive rail at one time. i could see like 20+ spread out along a massive rail at once. who knows maybe even more
