Bryan M Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Didnt TP land a double in the x games(11 or 12)? so whats the big deal(obviously a double is still a big deal for any mere mortal) with this guy doing it...except for the fact that he did it twice in the same comp? Quote
duniemonkie Posted July 2, 2009 Author Posted July 2, 2009 Pete and I thought it had been done but weren't sure... either way, it's still badass! Quote

Bryan M Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) THEY SAID THAT WAS THE FIRST DOUBLE COMPLETED IN COMPETITION THATS WITH A C :clown: ummm the XGAMES is a COMPETITION with a "C" probably the BIGGEST Competition with a "C" and if memory serves me correctly he did complete it....

beau Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 This was the first ever completed double backflip in a freestyle competition. TP did the first ever double backflip in competition however it was in the "Best Trick" event at X-Games. The difference being the type of competition that it was done in. Quote
RUn2it Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 The 1st was Pastrana, he did the double back flip in "Best Trick"at the x games in 2006, Scott Murray landed a double back last year at MotoX and was the 2nd to do it, but crashed at Xgames in 07 & 08 trying it. Nobody has done the double at xgames since Pastrana but Murray and Sinclair will be at the Home Depot Center the end of this month for X GAMES 2009. Going to get some pics there! The MetalMulisha were at the races last weekend and Todd Potter decided to ride UP the landing ramp to wave at the crowd while a guy was backflipping, the only time all weekend when a landing wasn't mid ramp, if it had been mid ramp he would have slammed Potter. Check out how the dude crosses the front tire onto the ramp and legs the back on. Titled DEVINE INTERVENTION (or what a friggin idiot) Quote
