I tied my velcro shoes this morning and didn't fall down even once today.

I'd try that but I'm too busty eating nachos

I wish I got busty when eating nachos...

Well you could put down the chips to do the trick, but I guess you're stuck with the large chest.

While flinging poo... Most impressive

I grew up when the first dirt tracks were made. Went to school with Haro, Jones and Osborn. It's amazing where the sport has gone.
derschweiz
I love that redbull actually sponsors crazy extreme shit like this you know? Supporting crazy assholes like this is awesome.

Ehhh pedaling smedaling. Didnt you see where he took off from

Anybody else totally nerding out over the magnificent Gothic architecture? That incredible cathedral has been in use for nearly 7 centuries.

It is wonderful, i hope one day to visit! As well as many other places in Germany/Europe.

When these show up are they the first ever time it's been done or first public performance?
MmmmmPapayas
I'm dizzy already.

Damn
Chev8t8
Yeah, okay, but that dismount...
YourMomJokes
i give op's mom a 1440 front cork every night and dismount like a fucking boss. amateur hour.
Augies
Why tho!

Brought to you by ESPN8 the ocho.

4 rotations in case anyone was curious like me. Well done!
FuryM0nk
And a cork means theres a flip in there too.
Grizy
1440 would suggest 4 complete rotations.
LeahShine88
Yay maths!

If I ever threw my bike down like that, XGames or no, my momma woulda beat my ass.

Good job, he did the thing!

He totally did the thing, go sports.

Funny thing is he knows he pulled it off after all that spinning and wiggling through the air.
Blahblahblagh
I think he's just happy he landed it lol
usersubbordercontrol
ICantThinkOfAU
I mean, I dunno how you'd NOT notice pulling off an insane move like that, that'd be taking apathy to some next-level places
asm80dfa8sdfj
I think he means, he knows the exact number of times he spun, despite whipping around so fast that you can't really see.
ICantThinkOfAU
I get that, but you make one mistake on a guitar and it's very obvious, this is shit they've practiced a lot, a tiny change is incredibly1/2
ICantThinkOfAU
obvious on an instrument with just the slightest misplacement of a finger, think about how much more obvious it is on this scale 2/2
dannishadow
As someone who knows nothing about this sport, how come he doesn't pedal? Wouldn't the extra speed be good? Or would it just be tiring?
dannishadow
I have learned so much about bike tricks and ramp speeds now. This is cool.
kozojeb
the ramp gives just the right amount of speed. too much speed and he would overshoot the landing and most likely crash (badly)
KalebJackson13
They make the ramp in mind so you don't need to. And when practicing insane crap like this, consistency is key
BustersFakeHand
Too much speed sometimes makes you overshoot the landing. They spend time practicing beforehand figuring out the speed needed to land smooth
lordbucket
A consistent descent delivers a consistent velocity. Peddling introduces an inconsistent variable.
peacebindi
I don't think you could peddle as fast as the ramp would make you go in the same distance
dannishadow
Thank you!
TheHankster
Also pedaling at that speed is very destabilizing. Everything that happens after the launch occurs because of weight shifts right at launch.
jimmydungis
As someone who does this (not 1440s but the jumps) usually it's made so that you get speed from the landings. It's like pumping on a swing
nalaNeoOreo
He was attempting for 1440. If he successfully gain speed by Pedaling then he will probably get a 1530 or a 1620 thus missing his goal .
airhorn
also, 1530 would probably be bad. 180n is good, 180n+90 is landing sideways.
asm80dfa8sdfj
"Dude I pulled off a sick 1530. Died though."
EnglishPolice
Was the "tiring" thing supposed to be a joke?
robogeek78
Obviously
HelloMax
I thought the whole question was a joke.
dannishadow
Ah. No. I wish I could claim that I did it on purpose, but I'm not that punny.
DanDippity
Would need a large gear ratio to add any speed, the pedals are just footrests. Pedaling would be a waste of focus, energy, and accuracy.
Buckbeak1486
Not to mention, it's basically impossible to keep your feet on the pedals while pedaling at that speed.
HodgePodgekin
A) How does someone practice this? B) Do you think he's already done the move many times in practice?
jazzhead
German live commentator said he succeeded at this trick first time 1 day before, that's why he goes so crazyhappy after the jump.
smashpro1
You launch off a ramp into a large pit filled with foam blocks.

You fall over and over and over until you don't fall over anymore.
dannishadow
Thank you!
Krakencrotch
One more thing: if you go too fast, you miss the landing ramp. For obvious reasons, you don't want to do that.
DanDippity
Source: I'm just assuming. I'm ignorant beyond the point of knowing that pedaling doesn't always add speed.
TTPLEB
Your correct at that speed you can't keep up with the ratchet and wouldn't gain any speed.
dannishadow
That's what I figured. The logic part of me knows there's a limit to acceleration. The kid in me thinks, "Pedal more = more speed!"
DanDippity
MORE SPEEEEEEEEEED
FraudulentPepsi
And yet you are the only one that answered correctly.
DanDippity
Oh, you! I'm blushing.
