First Tailwhip Superman Flip Videotaped
England (bikeradar.com) - While out on a video shoot with MTB DJ star Sam Pilgrim, Mountain Biking UK capture the first every tailwhip superman backflip on video. However, the trick was not pulled of by Pilgrim but instead Mr. Danny Pace.Here is what MTBUK had to say:
"On a crazy summer’s day Mountain Biking UK photoshoot with the cream of the crop from the UK’s dirt-jumping scene, some very special tricks were conceived.
Sam Pilgrim dialled in frontflip X-ups and frontflip tabletops, Jim Davage practised un-turndowns on a shopping bike and Welsh lunatic and Action Man impersonator Danny Pace attempted the elusive superman tailwhip backflip.
After more hard crashes than a human being should be able to take, the iron man of dirt jumping, who recently signed for Identiti and Gusset, pulled off this insane trick – but you’ll have to wait a while to see the video of him landing it. Instead here’s a little teaser before he managed to nail it.
The full story will be in MBUK 243, on sale on 23 September 2009."
