 Garrett Robertson with that X-up Front flip. Wow
  • 436
 Yea, i had a tough time choosing between that and Montgomery's backflip cliffhanger. in the end, i went with montgomery.
  • 124
 peer pressure.
  • 41
 It was extremely impressive
  • 50
 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.
  • 44
 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?

 i wish tom van landed his front flip bar spin
  • 92
 A LOT of awesome tricks, usually it would have been some hard decission, but Mike Montgomery made this fairly easy.
  • 142
 Sorry but personally I think the 3 tailwhip to bar should take the cake!
  • 23
 same, Nick Clarke without a doubt
  • 21
 Looks like a barhop backflip to me
  • 21
 he did both a barhop flip and a cliffhanger flip. look closer
  • 221
 Such A good Idea, on-line voting! (prevents certain saying of "- - - - -" getting robbed... Wink )
  • 104
 AHAHA right..... I just paid 20 kids $1 each to create accounts!Smile
  • 121
 Looks like you'll need at least 700 more kids if you want anyone other than Mike Montgomery to win.
  • 11
 tell all your friends to make an account and vote for nick clarke! quick! i'll give you c25ea.!
  • 100
 Mike Montgomery wins it for me. Was hesitating tough, the 720 and the sick x-up front flip were also amazing.

 How about Jeremy Weiss landing a norm cliffhanger with both feet on the saddle - original.

 i liked bafus with the switch footed landing. pretty sick too

 So hard to chose between a beautiful front-x-up and a backflip cliffhanger. But still Montgomery is a beast ! That 3-6 supermanseatgrab !!
  • 82
 clarke has to take it! 3 double whip bar!
  • 90
 Have to agree here. Think it was a single though?

flag llamaman110 (May 11, 2013 at 16:15) (Below Threshold)
 no, it was a double whip
  • 61
 cliffhanger backflip... are you kidding me ?!
  • 20
 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.
  • 10
 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!
  • 30
 All these guys are amazing..

 Bafus's switch footed landing was pretty clever! Although I had to go with the x-up fronty
