Yes this was one of the most beautiful course I ve ever seen! Unfortunately never in World cup what a shame. Even when everything would be normal with russian situation they would not take that into calendar....
Honestly, you don't NEED to understand the language. We know what they are saying. "It takes big balls to race here and if you miss it.... Well, it's gonna hurt".
Derek - these aren't the KAMELBÜCKEL, but the KAMELBUCKEL. That's still plural and does not need an 'ü' (nore the 's' at the end). Ein Kamelbuckel, drei Kamelbuckel. :)
Yea that mountain in the background is called „Langkofel“ in German. Its Italian name is „Sassolungo“, in Ladin it‘s called „Saslonch“. Saslong (the downhill shown in the video) is named by this mountain (small difference in spelling between Saslong and Saslonch).
@@raynic1173 Your theory is quite individual. What trigonometric function do you use in your calculations? I can see that it is neither a tangens nor a sinus. How do you calculate the 60-degree slope as a percentage?
Simply knowledge. First acknowledge that straight up equals 100 %. So then 100% = 90 degrees. Same thing as if you use radiants. Radiants I believe was created to have slopes in base 10. Which we know makes for easy math, although creating some confusion when converting from/to degrees. However, I think for converting you need to develop an algebraic equation. (And there's more than one way to get there). So if use a simple identifier p for percent and d for degrees. Example, We have 100p = 90d. So. 50 percent or 1/2 could be expressed as. 100p(1/2) = 90d(1/2). Or 100p/2 = 90d/2 So 50p = 45d. So that example is the what ever you do to one side of the equation you must do to the other to maintain equality. Another is the basics of understanding percentages. As one thing being apart of the whole. In this case the part is in the numerator and the whole is in the denominator. Solving the equation will give you percentages of anything. Also this is what "fractions" represent. When we write 2/3, we are saying 2 parts of 3. We can also ask what percent is 2 parts. So we divide 2 by 3 and we get 0.66 an then multiply by 100, which equals 66 percent. So to and answer you question what percent is 60 degrees. We can say (60 / 90) x 100 = ?p 66 = ?p. Another way to do it is to say... 60d is to 90d, as Xp is too 100p. Or 60/90 = X/100 (60/90) x 100 = X 66 = X So 60d = 66p. If you want to go the other way 33.3333p = ?d 33.3333p/100p = Xd/90d Or 33.3333/100 = X/90 (33.3333/100) x 90 = X .3333333 x 90 = X 29.99997 = X So 33.3333 percent (1/3) = 30 degrees.
Pure AWESOMENESS.
How long were the Sochi 2014 Olympics Roza Hutor lake jumps? I believe about 70+ meters, maybe more.

Super vidéo et une pensée à DAVID POISSON qui chute sur les KAMELS .
Good video, but I am glad I am a native Polish speaker, who is fluent/native level in English and can understand a decent amount of Italian ;)
what about German?
@@MrDerekFischer Unfortunately, that's one language my brain could never comprehend :P

04:33 What do they say before the last jump from nyman. It looks like a huge long jump.
That it was a 80 meter jump basically

My mistake. Thank you for the correction.

"longest jump: 88 meters" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bro, ffs, 51.27 % in not 27 degrees. It's 46 degrees.
51,27% is not 27 degrees. It is 30,8 degrees.🤣
@@MrDerekFischer you're still wrong. You dont seem to understand what % of slope is. Flat = 0, straight up = 100 and/so 50% = 45 degrees.

@@raynic1173 100% = 90 degrees is not true. the percentage is the tangens of the angle, not the sine. so 100% equals 45°.
