If he lands this will the crowd reaction compete with that of the double?

That is crazy, i think if he does crash it isnt going to be as bad as under-rotating the double backflip, it would still end up being a crazy crash but at least he would not come down on his head. God i hope he lands it safe. Good luck to everyone competing in X games this year, it is going to be one to remember

IF he lands this.. he better walk away for good.

If he doesn't land it.. he won't be walkin away from anything.

agreed, but he's only trying to... well i dunno, but Robert Pastrana said that in 199Lives so I guess Kareem Abdul Jabar thought it would be fine...

Looks like he's going to be doing it on an RM125. In both videos I've seen so far, he's been on a 125. It looks pretty sketchy. Most of his landings in the pit look a little sideways.

Best of luck, Travis!

THat may be but do you think he would bring it to X without being a little more than confident he could pull it off?

Yes I know the double back was sketch as well as the first 360 but he knew he could do it barring any horrendous circumstances we're talking about TP not Scott Murray im sure there is more than a calculated risk involved with this trick

With that................CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BEST OF LUCK TP199!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Um.... I hope he cranks that rotation a bit harder cause none of those foam pit landings looked good...

TP can do it tho, he's shown us that before!!!!

I'm thinking the same, but I hope we're both wrong.

I don't think he was saying Travis was going to die. I think he was saying he is going to miss him when he stops doing this. JMO And I agree wholeheartedly.

I have a feeling he has it more nailed than the video shows; they just want us talking about the possibility of him not making it so they released the video of him just barely getting around.

I pull that off all the time. In the loading zone of MX vs ATV.


Way to go Travis.

the height he is getting is crazy...if he doesn't land this trick.....it's not going to be pretty and will be just as devastating as under rotating the double backflip.

Remember when he under rotated that 360 and knocked himself silly? That's what I see with this if he doesn't bring it all the way around. Only a little worse...

I'm going racing tonight, but I'm DVRing this event. I really hope to come home and see that he is still in one piece. GOOD LUCK TP!

So sorry, but I did not mean that the way it sounded. I meant gone from the sport. I have never seen anyone so freaking innovative. The dude is one awesome rider.

I can totally see how that sounded and it isn't what I meant.

Sorry guys and gals!!!
