Mascia Ferri, an employee at the Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering and an excellent athlete, has recently set a new Italian skydiving record of 430.90 km/h in free fall. The athlete won the Italian Speed Skating Championships held in Fano from July 21 to 23.

With this result, Ferri is the third fastest woman in Europe and among the top eight in the world, and has been selected to represent the Italian national team at the European Championships and World Cup to be held in the Czech Republic next August.

Ferri was already the Italian and world female record holder in 2019. Congratulations on this incredible achievement!
