I never heard of ski flying before. It sounds like skiing off the side of a mountain and seeing how far you go before you hit.http://wjz.com/natsportswire/SKI--SkiFlying-ss/resources_news_html"Ahonen jumped 240 meters during the last round but fell. He was briefly hospitalized but returned."quote: Originally posted by rockmoose...The new world record for "skiflying" is 239.5 meters.One guy made 240m, but he fell when landing!...
