Traveling 89 mph down this hill in a vehicle is scary enough. Skateboarder Kyle Wester just accomplished it on his skateboard.
Wester set out to break Erik Lundberg’s 81.17 mph record for fastest skateboard speed downhill at an undisclosed location on Tuesday August 29. After a last-minute wheel adjustment, Wester hit the hill and shattered the current record with a speed of 89.41mph.
Guiness World Record has yet to update its website to reflect Lundberg’s or Wester’s records, so it’s technically not officially yet. But Mashable has reached out to confirm that Wester is now the record holder.
“Feels great man. Dream come true,” Wester said after learning his new top speed.
