Riding Backwards Down A Ski Slope On One Wheel (World First)

I'm going to set a new world record here. The world's best. This is not easy. It might take a few attempts but I think once he hits that perfect point of balance, we'll see him go all the way. Very nice. That control is insane, dude. Last year he tried this and failed. Again and again and again. Last year, I tried and I failed. I'm still alive. Tomomiya spent months preparing for a second attempt at this world record. Every detail has to be perfect. The balance. The grip. The brakes. That was a close one. I need to have more confidence in my tires and go forward. He's got a lot of grip. He was slower than before. Nice. Tomomi figured out that if he lays a net all the way down the hill, this creates enough grip for him to keep a constant speed. Tomomi's about to drop in. This is where it gets serious. Stand by, Tomomi's starting. Here he comes. Come on, baby. That's looking nice. Come on, yes. Nice and steady, nice and steady. No! Second try. Okay, here he comes. That's a scary fall. There's just so many factors he has to think about. The speed, the angle, the wind, the brakes. Too slow. I think I should release my brake just at this point. How do you even know what your body's doing while the ground is just like flying by your face? Oh my god, he's coming off. Tomomi's falling at the exact same spot every time, so there might be a problem with the net and his crew is checking it out right now. By crashing so many times, the net was coming off. But then the next problem is your brakes are overheating. You were braking, but nothing was happening. This is all you went through yesterday? Yes, seven. Seven brake plates. And now we have a new one, so I hope it works. Every attempt, he's getting a little bit closer to the finish line, which means there's a good chance this could be the one. You need a special type of person to be able to throw himself at this huge challenge over and over and over again. Good, nice in the middle. Come on, keep it, you got it. Catch it, catch it. Look at you. Come on, come on!
