Must have swaped wheels with boost hub wheels between runs.

Martin Söderström would be a great slopestyle commentator, so much enthusiasm!

Agreed but I'd rather see him ride!

Claudio style...narrating his own runs then goes to commentating! I'd watch it!

Thank you very much sir!

How did the rotational force of his balls not launch him into space?

It appears that having big balls doesn't mean they're heavy. Surprising !

More excited that the GoPro's recording then the fact that he did the double! Too good. Also, does he run into that guy on the stage?!

Yeah so first off, all due props to Buenvenido Awesomo Alba.

Then, let me shit on whoever or whatever the reason is that all we get of that piece of history is an obstructed shot of a display behind Soder & a POV. :/

Well done, Lad. Cheers to you! The bar has been set at a higher level. Enjoy! I too take off my helmet and get happy that I'm still recording, but most of the time it's after crashes.

Physics lesson; the amount of force coming off the take off to then throw into a front flip alone is a lot... Just kidding I can't explain this supernatural move.

pablorojas (Mar 27, 2015 at 18:16)

actually it is, it is required a transformation of linear movement to rotational, and, in a bike, specifically a frontflip, the amount of work needed (measured in joules) its quite difficult to achieve... so huge physics props to aguado (Y)

kjennings15 (Apr 1, 2015 at 13:42)

actually if we're gonna get technical, when dealing with rotational kinematics, the force needed to flip the bike is measured in newtons. but he uses magic.

Anyone else sick of gopro edits?
I want to see a good angle of the trick.

Well done to him though.

I need to see this from a different shot. This is amazing.

Yeah WTF, no side shot! I'd rather see the side shot vs GP shot.

Still wouldn't get more points than an 'oppo' 360 in an FMB competition.
