Lucille Borgan skied Nationals at 94.

Very impressive,  but also Guinness seems to be asleep at the wheel.  How could they miss Lucille?

@Than_Bogan Don’t you have to submit your “record” and pay a hefty fee to have it verified?

you would think they would do some sort of research though?

Back in the day I submitted the Guinness record for Billy Nichol’s epic barefoot ride. The record was approved. There was no fee involved, at least at the time. 
 

Lucille taught me how to do my first wake helicopter.  Someone should send documentation to Guinness. Lucille deserves the record if there is no one older.

@Horton How old was Irene when she was still skiing?
