You might want to check the date on the video there, champ. 4 - 5 years ago this was a brand new sport and as such had at least 4 different names as it was being developed in different countries around the world, depending on your geography and background.
It's now generally reduced down to either 'speed flying' or 'ground launching', although there are distinctions between those two, but at the time, SpeedSkiing was a moniker that was used.
Thanks for playing...

Either you're an idiot and you're not getting what I was saying in the earlier post or for some reason you're deliberately trying to make yourself look stupid.
The sport has been called many different things as it's been developed. SpeedRiding, SpeedFlying, SpeedSkiing, SpeedParagliding, Ground launching... They're all talking about the same basic thing - some with skis, some without.
At the time the video was made, it was called Speed-skiing. You can call it Bob for all I care.

Wow great, I wanna do this too, can you give me some info? Do you need to practice this? I'm skiing for years now, and I have lots of experience, a little sponsor, and I'm doing races, but do you think I'm able to do this? Thanks!

Sorry it's taken a while to respond to this, I don't check my PMs often.
Skiing experience is good, but what you really need is flying time. Picking up the gear and just going for it is a really bad idea. There are a few courses offered in Europe now - try a google search for 'Speedflying AND Beginner Course'.
