Teutonia Brazil – One of the unique aspects of the Malarrara Pro Teutonia is that each year a speed run competition is held. Last year Mischo Erban set the Speed Record for Downhill Skateboarding with a run of 113.02 km/h. Today it appeared to be a four-way battle between the top four qualifiers Douglas Silva, Kevin Reimer, Everton Alves and Erban. Erban was the first of the four to go. His speed of 115.21 km/h broke his year old track record and set the bar very high for the others. Rider after rider made attempts but no one could match Mischo’s speed. Alves tried but couldn’t with 111.02 km/h run.
The final two riders down the hill would be Reimer and Silva. Reimer went first and put in a blistering speed of 116.13 km/h to raise the speed record again and push Erban back to second. The final rider of the day was Silva. After his dominating time in qualifying plus his enormous experience on the hill, everyone was anticipating big speed from “Dalua.” It was not to be. Silva went through the timing trap with a speed of 114.77 km/h. It was only good enough for third. Reimer was stoked to get the Teutonia speed record over tough competitors like Silva and Erban.
Awesome!! But i got a question, what happened to scoot? is he no longer racing the world cup?
