I still say Pages did it first just like Jay Miron was the first to do a double backflip on a BMX bike.
Both are gnarly.
The Shop
That’s one of those tricks that will be seriously underrated because it looks easy, but holy hell is that impressive.
Even Tomac thought it was crazy lol
Do the ones on Bmx’s look as back flippy?
Pit Row
This Axell trick is named very accurately IMO
No disrespect to Axel, this is goddam gnarly as are a lot bbn of his videos .....to me Axel is the kind of rider naturally gifted with a good feel for the bike, the opposite of Tomac lol.
To me it looked like hes fading away while whipping the bike heavily almost fighting gravity and inertia
This is going passed 12:00 😂
The video is in fact a 540 alley oop. Note that Tom is spinning the same direction - CCW (Typically once people learn to spin, they spin a certain direction naturally.)
Axel has executed a basic alley oop. CCW rotation while traveling from left to right . Can also be done CW from right to left
Alley oops are usually how people cut their teeth when learning to spin on transition because you never lose sight of the landing. Once you get the "feeling" it's easy to progress into harder spinning tricks on transition. (I use the term "easy" in a relative way.)
All three are impressive on a machine with rotating internal parts. haha
