Please like and share this on our Facebook page! shaka

Mat Galina is an animal of a snowboarder and no stranger to going straight down a hill at top speeds.

This week Mat decided it was high time he want fast on the flats, but not just on snow, instead hitting more than 80 km/h to cross a 60 metre section of water on the Falls Creek ‘Rocky Valley’ Lake.

Check out the Drift Innovation GHOST HD helmet cam of Mat as he sails across the lake with ease much to the surprise of himself and the crew.

Thanks to Falls Creek Operations for all their support to make this event happen.

Check out Mat Galina and the rest of the footage the next episode of Oi Mate! presented by Boardworld and proudly supported by 3CS Outerwear, Rhythm Boardstore Cooma x Beaver Wax, Radical! Gloves, Now Bindings, Sandboxland, Arnette, Thredbo Resort, Fyve Snowboards, Drift Innovation and AUS & NZ Snowboarding Magazine.
