Anyone seen a front flip?

[Shadow7874]

Anyone?? Im sure its possible, but its gotta be way harder to overcome the physics then a BF. I just want to see what it looks like, or if its ever been done.

Yah they do them all the time up here. Watch at 1 minute in

They've done it on bmx and moto-x. Not on a standup.

I'm sure a 650 or a stock sxr could do one...

 

[yamaslut]

it would be ugly

I've done the "front flip exit". It's an old school trick where you do a front flip over the handlebars & you land in front of the ski as it reverses backwards. I couldn't imagine the ski doing a front flip. Like slutty said... ugly. I can post pics when I get home.

 

[keegan]

big wave...and a reverse bucket... lol

 

[Conquistador]

forgot the pics yesterday. Not exactly what you were looking for, but the closest I've seen.

I think an off axis front flip is possible.

I've done a front flip. Idok, Butti, Ewok and tons of fishermen even saw it.

 

[sflsurfrider]

it would have to involve a dropnozzle, chasing a huge curler toward the shore, and some alcohol/stupidity.

yeah, it wont be pretty, but itd sure be entertaining to watch!

 

[Wolf Child]

mine was pretty awesome.....or so I'm told.

pics/vid of said FF?
Im guessing it was an "accident"?

no, he meant to hit that sandbar at 20mph

:arms:

you guys DID tell me to junk that kawi. :sneaky:

 

[Conquistador]

there has got to be some god vid or pics somewhere.

I ff'd over the bars in tona this year. Tried to play it off like no one saw it, but pancake called me out later that night, haha.

Agree. I would think you would have to reverse your trim to get the momentum and then a huge azz wave to complete it.

Like Demon said an off axis front flip would be possible. I've done over rotated stabs landing on the tail.

 

[Big Kahuna]

I am not gonna say it is impossible, but I will say it is improbable....

Think the physics is just more than can be overcome.

I call that a windmill.
