Front Flip Attempt

Post by Travis »

I saw where they were practicing front flips into the sponge pit. Here it is attempted in the X Games.





So close that the Bike is able to ride it out without him.

Cool trick (landed or not), but Kyle Loza's Electric Doom was just wicked...

Looked like all he had to do was hold on. Easier said than done I know.

To me it seems that landing a front flip on dirt is going to be a hard slam on the forks.....followed by a crash.....unless you can stop the bike from rotating before the landing.
