A local rider I've known for years gives his best shot at a mini flip at an arenacross. This was the second and final attempt of the night.

Yeah quite a few people have actually, TP199 set a record for consecutive ones in under a certain time even.

Mini flips are landed on the wheels, not the head.

Did he walk away from that?
Yes, he broke his arm. The first attempt was about 1 minute earlier and honestly he almost made it, but this wasn't close.

That's sketchy AF sending it off a ramp like that, major props for the attempt.
