trials lad Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 I think that pic is fake the rider is in exactly the same position in the last six pics of the stunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtt Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Don't know if it's fake or not, but can't see why it wouldn't be alot easier on a 160lb trials bike than a 220lb MXer. Same technique would apply only the rotation should be easier. Stupid Human Tricks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highland lassie Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 (edited) There's a new backflip video on trialsection.com at the mo (in their video links...) trialsection.com You need to click on the word Backflip under the picture rather than on the picture itself though - otherwise it throws up an error.

boofont Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Can't find a backflip. Clicking on the video link just gives Raga on one wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
