Unfortunately it wasn't recognized because it didn't meet competition conditions

Going almost 1,000 feet in the air is insane.

I know ski jumping has been around for a long time and all the technology today examines every possible data point, but is that really the most aerodynamic position for the jump?

Would love to try that myself!

Yes you want the high pressure below you and low pressure above you.  Like a wing that is how you create lift the body and skis are compressing the air below and as he moves through the air he has a low pressure in his wake.
He is basically skiing in the air same as water skiing the water is a high pressure fluid and the air is low pressure fluid.

Would a wing suit help extend the distance?

Oh yeah you can actually trade speed/energy for altitude in them.  I think it would be a different record than the one he broke.

They moved 120,000 cubic meters of snow, holy crap.

edit: beautiful scenery for a lot of the video. Those mountains in the background...I love it.

8 minute video with no money shot time.  

Which is around 5:40.

He truly has mastered the art of flight.
That’s the only way his big brass balls can go through the air that distance.

What's that mean? It has to be done in competition or they didn't meet some conditions?

Falling/flying ~1,000 feet through the air? OK

Flying 1,000 feet through the air, then landing on a pair of planks strapped to my feet? Hard pass.

Yes, I ski. Yes, I’ve done small jumps. Something like that? Nooooo way.

Are they competition skis or longer/larger aerodynamic wing skis?
