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...

hey man ur amzing i looked at ur alblum do u think it would help maybe if u held ur brake when u landed or would u get buckecd off the bike?

freeriderayward (Oct 10, 2010 at 3:26)

The rotational force of a front flip would spit you over the bars definately.

+ 1

mikedjumpin (Oct 13, 2010 at 12:35)

and one day a double back flip was impossible. anything can be done man

+ 1

freeriderayward (Oct 14, 2010 at 0:39)

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.

Think what you like though =)

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!
