if he's doing a front flip... he must have some crazy spin 'cause its pulling his head back... my moneys on a backflip...
obvious--professional and zzoot you guys are retarded its obviously a back flip, i dont think anybody on this planet has enough skill yet to frontflip a drop like that considering people have just started back flipping drops in the past couple years.
Sweet pic though, really epic and well deserved POD

ohh god....no one wants your life story.

Damn you are dumb.
Look at the position his body is in. I have never seen someone front flip by looking the opposite way the want to rotate ie looking back.

well, as i stated in previous comments. im not typing it again. i know your all wrong, except plumslinger.
you know your all wrong... so untill you accept the fact you have no idea what your talking about, i am not fussed about what you say...

I hope you are just trying to mess with people, obvious--amateur. Do you not see the dust ON THE TAKEOFF???
do you NOT have a brain??? its dust on the LANDING because there was more than 1 RIDER there, and they were doing a train!
far out, get your facts right before you start arguing

i entirely take back what i said last night..i didnt get a good look at the picture, like holy shit hes doing a backflip! i didnt know that?! i thout he was just flyin through the air. oh man, negative props again...oh well just thought id let know
he is doing a front flip look he is leaning forward not hauling back on the bars i thought it was a backflip till i looked close its massive either way but it is a frontflip
Sweet POD and I think its pretty obvious that every one is taking obvious--professional far to seriously .. at least i hope hes joking
its obviously a backflip. to get yourself to continue the backflip you need to loook back. and who the f*ck would frontflip that. only if they had a deathwish.....
obvious--professional your telling us to get the facts right... i think your the one that needs to get there facts right. read the description is says "backflip drop" and if it were a step up he would need to fakie into it. i think you should not leave stupid comments cause all your doing is embarrassing yourself.
Everyone who thinks this is a front flip....u fail at life and do not deserve to grace this wonderful sport with ur presence, even if ur kidding...ITS NOT FUNNY
once and for all just look at his f*cking helmet. hes lookin up towards the landing. he would only do that if it was a backflip. damn you guys are stupid~!
Rode the Kamloops bike ranch today and came across this....you can tell what it was but its all torn down now. Shit is insane!!!
k first of all.... its not a front flip, after a valuable 10 seconds of my life i finally realized that, i just said it was, cuz it looked like a fronto on first site. SECOND! obvious--professional f*ck! change your user name cuz its making me sick, and grow a f*cking extra ball, cuz with all your bitch'n, its pissing me off. THIRD..............this movie's gonna be super sick cant wait to get my hands on it.
Hes just enjoying screwing with you, also anyone who thinks this is a front flip needs a good backhand to the face

hmm thats odd.. that wasnt the comment i tried to comment on... oh well i deserve the neg props i guess..
look mate you aint got a clue what your on about....

point proved.

yeah well why its the dust above and past the take off then???? if its was the landing it would follow the line of the riders
how about you admit your wrong.
how about you admit your wrong.
because someone has already landed there moron...
why dont you admit that you are jelous of me and my natural gift, and that you are so very wrong.
i forgive you connor-rides-stp... but the question is... will jesus?

do you have no faith in life?
do you want to live in sin and knowing everyday that you lie and have no idea about the truth?
it is so plain to see, the landing of the step up... and the front flip he is doing up it.

Some natural gift you can not even properly insult someone...fail!

Oh connor your so funny. Your about as smart as my shoe. In fact, I could probably have a better conversation with my shoe and or a light pole than you. Obvious--pro, proves some good points, hes pretty convincing!! 
finally some one with some sence.
maybe you should all take a note out of enduro06's book. and get your facts right.

OH my god....ur all blind have u looked at the pic closely? its obvious.....a professional must have been taking the pic. hes doing an inverted mute wirly-bird disaster suicide two hander, with a half corked revert. man I cant belive no one else sees it...its OBVIOUS
P.S. if the Sarcasm dripping off ur screen gets on the floor, wipe it up with ur dunce cap

Stop feeding the trolls, aka obvious--professional. He's just here to start shit, so just ignore all of his comments.
but u miss the point, its just fun to have a verbal battle with some one as obviously un professional as him. besides..I'm bored and this is making me laugh.
we all know no matter what is being done in the pic its super badass, kinda like if ur name was Voltron...

BWahahahahahaha....ok so I just wqatched the trailer...u can clearly see hes doing a back flip....I know this pretty much puts an end to any more fun we can be havin at ob-pros expense, but I just thought it should be known. and damn does that movie ever look good, I'm not much for trick ferrets normally but there some huge trickery being thrown down...cant wait.
Not if he was doing a front flip.... He'd be pointing in the right direction when he lands.
another fine point shot to shite

if you had ever done a backflip you'd know this guy is just spotting his landing on the final rotation.
anyways..
hella sick, first time seeing that thrown on a drop.

holy crap!!! thats amazing!!! Totaly deserves POD. Massive trick, over a massive drop, well taken. nice work! 
(oh, and anyone reading this, have a look down the comments at all the arguements started by someone called obvious-professional, i think he's done it to a couple of POD's now. Its freakin hilarious)

People, PLEASE stop arguing with obvious-professional!
This guy is clearly an idiot, and just looking to antagonize anyone he can.
Just let him put up his comment, and then pay NO attention to it.
We should all be showing some love for the POD; unless it's truly garbage.
RESPECT to the rider!! Regardless of which way he's flipping.
*****For the record, any true rider that's hit jumps in his life knows this... YOUR BODY FOLLOWS YOUR HEAD! You can't 360 if you don't look over your shoulder, and you can't flip unless you pull/push your head. Also, you can NOT spin in the opposite way your heads turned. It stops the rotation.
Lastly, unless you are use the "force", or are totally in tune with nature. You need to "spot" your landing (Look where you're going)and as you can see from the pic above; he's doing just that. His head is arched back (i.e. BACKFLIP)and he's "spotting" the landing he's coming into. If this were a front flip, his head would be leaned forward.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

I wouldn't call him the idiot, maybe immensely sarcastic at best, everyone is so serious on this site. Maybe if people had a sense of humor and didn't always want to impress everyone else. No one seems to have ever been a noob and everyone seems to be a pro at photography, filming, riding. That is the internet so get used to it.
Thanks for the lessons on how to flip and spin, you know they say if you can't do then teach right....

But it just so anoying how obvoise pro does that. And no one is implieng that that they are a pro at photography, no offence but i dont no where u got that from
Whats more annoying is kids like you, that don't take the time to use the English language properly...
You don't need to look over your shoulder to do a 360, just when you are learning to do one. Once you figure it out you just need the balls not to look. That said, it'd be pretty hard not to look on a flip....which this obviously is.
Thank you Duxes, i agree 100%. ignore the jerk and others with negative attitudes. Don't need on the trail, don't need it here. also, love the POD.. i'm envious.
Hey Crankenstein! I hope all is well.
Just wanted to say Thanks for the comment regarding my post.
I really don't understand why some of these guys feel the need to go at each other. We're all riders; regardless of skill.
We have a common bond in our love for 2 wheel self propelled fun, so I just don't understand why there is all this negativity on the site.
*I guess the anonymity of the computer makes a lot of these guys feel real tough. SAD!
Have a Happy Holidays & stay positive!!

You dont HAVE to look doing 3s, it just helps to spot the landing properly, if youre not looking its gunna be pretty shit. and flips you dont have to look either. its just the pull/ leaning back but not looking does make it way more dangerous

Freaking sick! Major Props! The areguments on here are pretty funny though. Its clearly a backflip. And its not a step up bro haha.
[Reply]
anyone who says its a front flip is a total moron, when you flip, you look the way you're flipping... when you front flip you look down, when you back flip you look up. and why would you say its a front flip when the description says back flip drop anyway....? and to the idiot that thinks its a step up front flip, he would have had to come off the lip back wards to be facing the way he is or have done a 180 then started his flip which is impossible so...
AMAZING!!!
and to obvious-professional and any of you others that think this is a frontflip...you are all RETARDED and you should probably cut yourselfs or something
its a BACKFLIP, he's just positioned wierd on his bike, if it was a frontflip his head would be by his front tire. He's looking back...hence its a backflip...

theres a lip, that means its a step down...
a drop is a flat take off, no lip
how the f*ck is it a drop then?

Thats freaking insane, but its not a drop. Drop = flat lip, dropping down. Stepdown = booter/ramp, jumping out + down
