Pro Freeriders Vs. A Stunt Plane: Who Wins?

We often think of professional athletes, especially freeride athletes as having no fear and being comfortable in extremely uncomfortable situations. For the most part, that’s pretty true, but it sure does have its limits. Take, for example, freeride mountain bikers Clemens Kaudela and Szymon Godziek. They might be plenty comfortable going upside down over the biggest jumps in the world at Dark Fest, but what happens when they strap into a aerobatics stunt plane and get flown high above Cape Town? Let’s put it this way: the washing machine ride at 20,000 feet is nothing like mountain biking. To a seasoned stunt pilot? Pulling 6Gs is just another day at work. To Clemens and Szymon? It’s hard to keep your lunch down.
