VK is all about pure performance. It's not about technique or strategy it's just how much you can work and how strong you are. Watch as Kilian explores Norways epic landscapes to find the perfect spot to break the fastest known time "FKT" of a VK held by Philip Gotsch which is under 29 minutes.

Doing both the VK and the skyrace in Tromsö. Because its not easy to train for that terrain when you live in the flatter part of Sweden.

I’m still trying to break the 1h00 for a VK :p In Madeira Island you have a few awesome VK with great tracks in the middle of pure forest! It’s quite steep, 1000mt of elevation in under 3900mt of distance.

i mean that‘s kind of expected, isn‘t it? no matter how fit you are you can always go towards your limit. it‘s just that his limit is incredibly far above the limit of normal snd even other fit people.

@jon630 Жыл бұрын

Wow! Super impressive! I haven't attempted a VK, but even doing the 2000 feet of ascent on the Manitou Incline in 30 minutes was really tough for me. I can't imagine how difficult it is to go under 30 minutes on an extra 1200 feet! I would think the best VK route would be some sort of super steep, sustained class 3-4 thing. That last "trail" looked pretty close to optimal.
