Fastest you have gone on skis?

In February of 2013 a friend of mine and I were lucky enough to ski 'The Wall' at Kirkwood, CA when it was groomed (they actually had snow there before the 3 year drought began). On the third and final run, after two 'practice' runs, he was able to clock me at 92.5 mph on a pair 5-year-old Nordica Speed Machines II (not the typical downhill ski to say the least). And yes, we were responsible enough to make sure that no one was skiing ahead of us for at least a mile down.

That's fast! Never measured myself or had anyone else do it, but I know I've not gone nearly as fast as that, ever.
