    It was posted yesterday with a different video that goes more into details what this is all about, the old records and how these were achieved and what the “true killscreen” (this crash) is, etc. I didn’t think it would actually be that interesting, but I watched the whole thing and quite enjoyed it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuJ5UuknsHU

      I saw the post yesterday, but didn’t watch the video at the time.

      Your comment convinced me to watch it, and, boy, was that more interesting than I expected.

      One question remains: what are those gloves they are wearing? I get that it’s something that helps with the rolling technique, but is it just for abrasion/chafing prevention? Or does it do something else?

        I’m guessing the gloves provide low and consistent friction theoughout the game. It’s probably easy to get either sweaty or dry fingers during a long run, which could probably ruin some precise movements.

        It’s just my guess, though.
