"He holds the world record for the most human-powered vertical feet skied in a year, totaling 3,590,097 feet. For 348 days, Noah skied an average of more than 10,000 feet a day. Alex Hackel is a top-notch skier in his own right, earning both a bronze and silver medal at the X Games in Real Ski. He is not a ski mountaineer, but he decided to race Noah Dines in a skimo race anyways."
"He gave himself a little boost for the contest, though, wearing the Hypershell X Series exoskeleton to see if it could give him enough of a boost to beat a world record holder. Despite throwing several challenges in Noah's way, Alex having a mechanical boost, and Alex fully skipping a lap to make it a closer race, Noah was able to secure the win."
Noah Dines holds the world record for most human-powered vertical feet skied in a year, totaling 3,590,097 feet. For 348 days, he skied an average of more than 10,000 vertical feet per day. Alex Hackel earned bronze and silver medals at the X Games in Real Ski and challenged Noah to a skimo race despite not being a ski mountaineer. Alex wore a Hypershell X Series exoskeleton during the race to gain a mechanical uphill advantage and skipped a lap to tighten competition. Despite these factors and added challenges, Noah secured the win and the exoskeleton provided an uphill boost but did not overcome Noah's endurance and skill.
