The ride had a cut, Macík did not spare the truck, the basin was soon covered with dust. He performed several skids, the one in the finish line at a speed of 110 kilometers. He let the truck fly through the air a few times. “It was a great experience. I didn’t expect the first jump into the turn, it was so wild. The last time I shouted like that a few months ago in Whistler, when I banged on the side of a riverbed, “described the three-time junior world champion, when she found herself back on solid ground after about a five-minute wild ride.
“Anička was a nice co-driver. I explained to her how to hold her body to be ready for shocks. She listened. The advantage for women is that they trust me in the cabin. So when we arrived first to jump and I told her to clench her belly that the car would jump a little, she started screaming instead. As they say, the heart fell into his pants at that moment, “Macík laughed.

Big Shock
He spoke through the microphone while driving to Fernstädt. He described what would come, whether a jump or a skid. “She was fine after the first jump. She was only a few times surprised when we drove through the door forward, “Macík added.
But he didn’t have to give her courage. The seventh woman from this year’s senior World Championships, who flies through the ice trough her head first at a speed of up to 140 kilometers, is done for fear. “I don’t think it was more adrenaline than a skeleton. I believed Martin that he could drive, so I wasn’t even afraid. I would give more than three laps. I think learning on the skeleton was worse, “Fernstädt said.

Big Shock
She likes to drive a car, she sometimes steps on German motorways. But she was sitting in the race car for the very first time. “I like to drive fast, but I don’t need a race car for that again,” smirked the 23-year-old skeletonist, who switched from the German national team two years ago. In return, she invited several Dakar participants to a ride on a skeleton.
“I’m going in, I like the offer. After all, it was my wish when I learned that I would take Anička. I know, I’m going up the ice upside down, which is unimaginable to me yet. But I think it will be fun, “added Macík.
