As with any claim of a first ascent, descent, invention or discovery, proper documentation determines the record.
It is theoretically possible that there may be some individual in the Alps or Alaska who has skied more continuous months, just as
there may be some unknown native in deep, dark Africa who is truly the fastest runner in the world.
Long-term records involving other types of skiing may exist (such as telemarking, skate-skiing, or cross-country--
forms of skiing considered separate disciplines in the Olympics, World Cups, etc).
However, the required documentation for the alpine, or downhill, records described in SkiStreak.com have been provided to publishers for over a decade.
The burden of proof for any other long-term record challenge falls upon the claimant.
