That landing looked pretty smooth, too.
It was difficult to see on the video, but it didn't look like his head snapped down, it didn't even look like his butt hit the seat. It didn't look like a "hard" landing, I bet he could go even further.

Farther might be possible with no wind and a faster sled.
