A daredevil rollerblader found a novel way to go faster – by getting a tow from an energetic husky.
Tatiana Karpova, 19, was filmed hanging onto the harness of her friend’s five-year-old dog Bootur in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.
Footage shot by her friend Igor Karmazinov on October 12 shows Tatiana speeding along a cycle path behind the dog.
Huskies, originally bred to haul sleds, can reach speeds of up to 30mph and Bootur has no trouble pulling Tatiana along.
The video shows Tatiana skating along using Bootur for speed as she laughs and jokes with her friend Igor.
She grabs Bootur’s harness and lets him run as fast as he can down the path and at one point mimics a cowboy spinning a lasso or even cracking a whip like a sled driver.
The duo appear to be skating along a cycle lane on a main road in the city in western Russia.
Tatiana is kitted out with safety clothing including knee pads and gloves.
