Awesome to see someone accomplish it!

I see that one as a much larger chanllenge than a bike or quad. just think about what it takes to attempt such a act let alone land it!!!!!!

Post by: fabr on July 27, 2009, 12:42:01 PM: Ya know,the BIG AIR stuff is really impressive but there was just something about that little tiny backflip that really really impressed me more.

Post by: Islander on July 28, 2009, 02:06:35 PM: They removed the body so it wouldn't get smashed if he didn't land. Them bodies can be worth over 10 grand, so I can see why they'd take it off. Tom Meents (Maximum Destruction) did a flip during a freestyle on Monster Jam once, but not a clean landing, landed on his nose and then fell back, but it wasn't on a "flip" prepared ramp, either! And he kept going for more after!!
