Kirill Churbanov, I'msad about your fork, I was in the same situation about 3 months ago... i don't know about your style of fork, and what fork you broke, shivers or this on hardtails, but if can choose a good one it would be risse racing, they have 7",8",9",12" forks, props for the photo, never give up dude!!! frontflips are hard, but when u clear one.... it will be the best sensation in the whole world... send me the link of achtung plx, and good luck with Vicious Circle!take care...
Yes, but it would be easier to land this trick with out your back brake on while landing. It would continue the foward rotational forces, causing you to flip.
for this kind of riding you shouldn't be bothered because of a broken fork. Sponsors should have given you like ten new bikes in case of brakage or smthing. Respect!
Really no front brake??? I've watched it a shitload and I swear your front wheel is stopping right before the drop, are you sure you didn't grab it without thinkin??? Anyways great f*ckin skills man, thats guts! PEACE
I've done this. It looks like you got a big enough drop so heres how to do it. 1. You need significant speed going into the drop and very good traction. 2. As you near the lip pre-load the rear or with a hardtail, just wind up. 3. Throw your head and upper body forward(NOT DOWN)and slam on the front brake. 5. Tuck and roll. 6. Complete the rotation with your legs in order to slow down the rotation (so you don't nose over landing). 7. Land, ride to the nearest bar, by yourself a beer and tell your buddies how you also did a no hander in the flip. They just didn't see it.
Trail: Dzerjinsky, Moscow region Riders: Ben de Roni (me) Description: Another frontflip drop attempt, I've tried about 20 times but can't land it yet. And this weekend i broke my fork backflipping a drop and have no bike now to go on filming for Vicious Circle... That suck!
