Forcefield sponsored snowboarder as the first person to be towed by a commercial PLANE

Snowboarder reached speeds of 78mph

A glimpse of Saint Moritz snowy mountains may help us tackle the heat wave that's sweeping across Europe, hence it's the perfect time to recall Jamie Barrow's amazing feat as the first snowboarder in the World to be towed behind a commercial plane.

A Daily mail article detailed Britain’s fastest snowboarder had reached speeds of 125kph whilst being pulled by a PC12 aircraft at Engadin Airport near St Moritz in Switzerland.

The epic stunt video went viral on YouTube and later on Jamie commented on his Facebook page. "Over 100,000 views in just over a week! Stoked! Thanks for everyone’s support!"

Jamie Barrow also thanked Forcefield's sponsorship in a post on Facebook: "Very happy to announce my new sponsors (…) Forcefield (…)! Keeping me fast and keeping me safe!”
