"Urban skiers are something else, sending pretty jaw-dropping tricks, rails, and jumps with nothing but a thin layer of snow and cement to catch them. We've seen quite a few brutal urban wipeouts over the years, but this one stands out. The video shows an urban skier attempting to jump a section of the Rideau Canal in Ottawa, Ontario. Based on a look at some maps, this section of the canal appears to be around 35-40 feet, so nowhere near an easy jump."
"Unfortunately he just barely undershot the jump and he wound up with what we can only assume are some pretty sore ankles, if not completely broken ankles. This clip is the opening scene of of THE JETSKIS MOVIE, a collection of some seriously impressive urban skiing, If you're looking for a good 22 minute movie to watch while eating some lunch, give this a watch."
Urban skiers execute high-risk tricks, rails, and jumps on minimal snow and concrete surfaces. A filmed attempt captures a skier trying to clear an estimated 35–40 foot span of the Rideau Canal in Ottawa, Ontario. The skier barely undershoots the gap and appears to suffer severe ankle injuries, possibly broken. The footage functions as the opening scene of THE JETSKIS MOVIE, a 22-minute compilation showcasing impressive urban skiing. The material highlights both the technical skill involved and the significant physical risk inherent in urban ski attempts.
