In a groundbreaking moment for skiing, 22-year-old Olympian Mac Forehand has been named the first skier ever to nail the upside-down rail slide. This feat took place at Sunday River in Maine and showcased Mac's athleticism and dedication to pushing the sport's boundaries.
The gravity-defying trick, conceptualized by Mac himself, came to life with the support and logistical planning of Team Red Bull.
With a 500lbs rail suspended in mid-air, the X Games Big Air Gold Medalist hit the end of the 50' long rail in both his switch cork 5 and switch cork 7.
On the day, friends of Mac and other Red Bull athletes gathered at Sunday River to witness history.
His vision, coupled with Team Red Bull's support, has redefined possibilities in freestyle skiing, inspiring a new generation of athletes. This groundbreaking accomplishment emphasizes the creative and innovative future of freestyle skiing.
