Frenchman David Andreev, alias "Speedflying Kid" filmed his descent of a mountain in the Austrian Alps, on August 30.

The striking images of the sequence were obtained thanks to a 360 degree camera fixed in the back of Andreev.

Followed by nearly 20,000 people on Instagram, the young daredevil is not at his first descent and regularly posts his exploits on social networks.

Only a few thousand followers around the world practice this discipline.

The next rally called Speed ​​Ride World Meet, will take place in 2023 in Val d'Isère.
