Open final starts at @3:28
Verdicchio Race is a downhill skateboarding race in Poggio Cupro, Cupramontana, Italy.
This was one of our most challenging flights for the 2018 edition of Verdicchio Race IDF World Cup. We were livestreaming, riders went down fast, and there was no place for mistakes. The coordination between pilot and camera operator had to be absolute and smooth. There were no second takes, and we didn’t want to disappoint the audience.
We are very happy with the outcome, the drone was very responsive, we had good connection from start to finish in every run, and we felt very much synchronized for this demanding and technical experience.

AWESOME!!😁
What makes Thiago so much faster?
2:35 Why is everyone fucking around air braking to let Morgan Owens pass from last to first as he holds his tuck? Thiago hit every corner perfectly after that monster push; unbeatable. Congrats to Emily Pross for reaching the finals again. Yvon, I think that this is the best aerial footage of a downhill gravity race that I’ve ever seen; great job!
Thiago Lessa the best downhill skateboarder ever
