 Garrett Robertson with that X-up Front flip. Wow
  • 43 6
 Yea, i had a tough time choosing between that and Montgomery's backflip cliffhanger. in the end, i went with montgomery.
  • 12 4
 peer pressure.
  • 4 1
 It was extremely impressive

 Agreed. Montgomery's tricks were super tech, but an x-up front flip is equally tech and Robertson stomped it as clean as clean can be.
  • 4 4
 x-up frontflip was cleaner and looked more stylish in my opinion. cliffhanger flip looked too forced.

 Ilamaman, you a little clueless there or something? 3 double whips have been around for a lot longer than bar-hop & cliffhanger flips AND, who the f*ck else do you know of that's doing them? His execution is so perfect, pure moto.

Why is anyone talking about an x-up front? It looked decent but an x isn't even a trick. It's just turning the bars really far.

 Mike Mo with a cliffhanger backflip, do we really need to vote?

 A LOT of awesome tricks, usually it would have been some hard decission, but Mike Montgomery made this fairly easy.

 At first I voted and I was like ''nah Robertson should win'' and I read Mike Mo at first, and I watched Montgomery's again, and I could've swore my whole street heard the huge ''Yewww'' after that. Bangers all round!

 Those two bar humps at 0:37, obviously. They were the best, bar (hump) none.

 I saw a lot of steeze and some seriously good riding but nothing caught my eye and stood out like mikes tricks did. There were several riders who showed well above the others as well but mike was dialed. Huge props.

 I love all of the tricks Montgomery brings from dirt bikes! Sick bar hope backflip and cliffhanger flip. IMO either one of those would win the best trick!
