Snowboarder pulls off world first triple flip off a rail | ABS CBN News

Czech snowboarder Jakub 'Kuba' Hrones performed a world first triple flip off a rail to add his name to the annals of snowboarding history. The 19-year-old pulled off the historic feat, officially titled the 'switch boardslide switch triple underflip 1170', in his hometown of Spindleruv Mlyn in the Czech Republic, along a 10.5-meter rail standing 1.7 meters high, culminating years of meticulous preparation requiring a deep understanding of physics and mathematics to calculate the exact measurements. Beginning his passion for the sport aged just two, Hrones announced himself to the snowboarding world in 2022 with a slopestyle gold and big air silver in 2022 at the European Youth Olympic Games in Vuokatti, Finland, and has his sights set on competing at the 2026 Winter Olympics and X Games. -- Report from Reuters .
