Cosa tratta questo video

Juho attempts a 780-kilometer solo kite-skiing expedition along the west coast of Finland, traveling primarily on sea ice.0:06 He utilizes a pulk to carry gear, attaching it with a quick-release carabiner to ensure safety if he breaks through the ice.5:06 Throughout the journey, he navigates obstacles including open shipping channels, power lines, and pressure ridges.6:01 When crossing the Raahe harbour shipping lane, he encounters open water and uses a light dry suit to swim across, towing his pulk behind him.33:11 He relies on an ice pole to test ice thickness, using the rule of thumb that if the pole does not penetrate with one firm strike, the ice can support a person's weight.6:48 When his expedition-grade pulk sustains structural damage, he coordinates with his partner, Sohvi Kangasluoma, to have it repaired with fiberglass and carbon fiber.28:07 He frequently utilizes local accommodations, such as bed and breakfasts and cabins, to maintain warmth and comfort during the winter transit.4:32
