Obviously one of the coolest guys on the planet, but he scares the shit out of me. I won't watch it. Someone tell me when it's over and he's ok, then I will. Otherwise, forget it. I'd hate to see him get hurt.

as horrible as this sounds. ill be watching travis try it. and i think he can pull it off (because hes travis)

but i have a weird feeling hes gonna get hurt really bad this time

i guess were gonna watch one of the most horrific crashes (friday is best trick, right?) or we will watch travis make history.

hes probably already landed it on dirt by now, but hasnt told anyone.. just to add the hype to the trick. what sounds more travis like? "uh, i land it into the foam pit about 50% of the time.. idk we'll see" OR "yeah im doing it with my eyes closed, piece of cake"

im not saying he has landed it, but travis isnt dumb. he probably has it down at his house. how else would he know the exact ramp angle and distance?

He's come a long way from Thursday night practice at Dade City....maybe 15 years ago.

He popped into Bithlo a few months ago.....pretty cool guy. I wish him the best. I wish he would stop the X-treme stuff.

That would be a NO-HANDED backflip 360 as devin mentioned above.

Check out the vid below to hear TP talk about it. (not the same vid as above)
