Yep, he even said he maintained flight level 2000m for about 30 seconds. About 7000 feet.
Very cool.

So, I have watched those extreme games where they have a guy jump out of a plane with a snowboard strapped to his feet along with a camera man. Very choreographed, and there are lots of ways to pull off looks like that.
I am not saying that the guy absolutely did not "fly", but that video is damned inconclusive.

I was going to say, this reminded me of a clip from Warren Miller's 2005 film IMPACT.
