Hey Steemians,

The Swiss @Hyperloop pod from @swissloop finishes in the top 3 at @SpaceX #Hyperloop Pod Competition.

I am feeling super proud from this Swiss Team from ETH Zürich that arrive TOP 3 in this HYPER-LOOP COMPETITION organised by Musk! As I studied mainly mechanical engineering I am very proud from my home team department to placing themselfe 3rd Overall in the hyperloop Competition

The model of the Swissloop team has convinced in California. Engineering students at the ETH were third in a hyperloop competition organized by Tesla CEO Elon Musk. On the grounds of Musks space company SpaceX in Hawthorne California, the Swiss team has claimed against most of the 600 participating students from 24 universities.

here was their pitch during the START SUMMIT couple of month ago before the competition:

And here during the construction phase. The students worked on their pod for eight months. (Video: ETH Zurich)

The ETH team succeeded in tackling initial problems. On the other hand, the Swiss enjoyed the countdown in a surprisingly good Swiss version (to be heard in the video below after 10.35 minutes): "Foif, vier, drü, zwei, eis" The boss also personally congratulated them the successful run by crushing some team members. They even get to know ELON MUSK!!

What i can say contrats all you guys and I am looking forward for more!

TO ALL MY FOLLOWERS, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT?

Happy steeming,

Francesco
