Top ten hardest things to do in sports - #6
Posted on May 23rd, 2008 by Dennis
Remember - this isn’t my list. This list was put together by USA Today…but I have to agree with this one!
Number 6 - Landing a Quad
Landing a quad in ice-skating is one of the most demanding skills in all of sports. A skater reaches a height of 18 inches above the ice…experiences 300 pounds of centrifugal force — all while spinning four times in .5 seconds.
Now…I know next to nothing about ice skating…but…c’mon…you don’t have to be a genius to see the skill in this one. I’d have this one AT LEAST at #6 on my list.
