Huge congratulations Skipper Chris! It's been a rapid progression from struggling to make the 70 m crossing to breaking the world record. Also, nice hat.
Are these shotgun targets that explode when shot? If so I wouldn't count them because it would need to be a natural rock imo,a perfectly flat and perfectly round object should do better so idk
These are custom made concrete "stones" that match the weight and density of a natural rock, but in a consistent and repeatable shape. I explain the process in some of my other videos ruclips.net/video/PV1G1sBqfM8/видео.html
Or Alex Lewis, he threw (Alex Lewis) 145 meters with a man made stone at the Welsh Open recently and his stones were not painted (which removes a huge amount of friction)
Absolutely astounding. Gigantic congratulations! There could be different categories of stone skipping records: natural and artificial stones. Could be interesting but might bring up some problems or something. Anyway, you certainly deserve to be the record holder. Beautiful throws too!
While you may have done a thing, it just won’t be ratified. Limno lithics are specific. I think you could put more energy into these throws. Fun stuff.
So much! Moved back to Vermont, got a job, bought a house, and trying to cram adventures in every free bit of time this summer. Going to the Vermont Stone Skipping competition on September 17th, so will absolutely get a video up of that!
@@skipper_chris Awesome! Can't wait for that video! We just finished a short film for the 48hours challenge: will drop a link once we are allowed to share it!
Only natural stones count for world records! And the unofficial world record with a man made stone is 145 meters by Alex Lewis! Non the less great throws!
Well at least I had the unofficial man made record for about a year. Still amazed by Alex Lewis's incredible throw! Going to take a lot more practice to get there.
why the stone is orange
Awesome! Congratulations Chris! Looking forward to catching up with you in the states. Best of luck with the move.

Awesome skips! My best is right around 100 meters. I need to try making some of those perfect stones like you have
Super Talented Person Really❤😊

Give your stones to Dougie Isaacs and let see what is a world record.

This is awesome, congrats and fantastic job working the process!
It has been 7 months since your last video! What is happening in Skipper Chris land?

Inspiring!!!
@SkipperChris you ain't just some average guy skipping stones mate... you're a world record holder!

They can’t be stones
WooowEeeee! 🎉🎉🎉🦆🎉🎉🎉
We need a side shot to count the number of skips!
Concrete self made stones do not count for the Guinness team...it needs to be stone, non man made
That's some brilliant throwing but to break the world record you have to use natural stone not artificial...just saying 😊
i thought we counted skips not distance
Stone skipping = skip counting. Stone skimming = distance
Someone call Guinness!
Legend
Theyre not stones. Smh
