121 Umgänge zu zweit

Die LuckyClowns Yves Berlowitz und Remo Niederer stellten gleich bei ihrem ersten Versuch am 11. September 2010 mit 121 Umgängen einen neuen Synchro-Infinity-Weltrekord auf. Sie konnten damit den bisherigen Rekord vom justAcro-Team um 36 Infinity-Turn’s überbieten.

Nach dem D-Bag-Absprung aus dem Helikopter auf 12′000 Fuss (ca. 4000müM), war die Linthebene (Ostschweiz) mit ihren weiten Flächen die ideale Region für diesen Rekordversuch. Die LuckyClowns schwingten während 3 Minuten und 38 Sekunden gleichzeitig und nahe nebeneinander 121 mal senkrecht über ihre Akroschirme und mussten dabei bis zu 7 G’s pro Umgang ertragen.
