he is supposed to be doing a backflip over the fountains that evil kaneivel didnt make,but robby did..should be good
I think this is terribly irresponsible of him. I mean, the guy has 2 or 3 little kids. I though he might slow down after he left one of his balls in Europe, but i guess not:ermm:

Im sure hes just not gunna go out there and jump it hes prolly practiced it so many times by now its just not gonna be a big deal. Im sure whne its on Tv they arent gonna show him practicing jumping over it and flipping just because they want to make you think its his first time jumping it.
what im trying to say is hes not just gonna unload his bike and go and jump it hes probably been practicing and jumping it all week.

so i guess when a police officer or someone in the military or other dangerous job has kids they should just quit?

And actually from what i've heard from a friend thats been to his house and hung out with him, his family is his most important thing. I'm sure if he felt like it was something he couldnt safely accomplish he wouldnt do it. ...so as soon as you get or maybe you have a family are you going to give up riding? because that is dangerous also.

Yup... Kinda like Jon pulling it over the train.
he should do it over a bunch of babies and kids. that would really get some attention

exactly, almost anyone who rides FMX can do a flip on a bike, unlike a quad, only 2 people have done them which makes it better becuase they arent ove

He was praticing at home, I doubt he tryed it before. If he did it was just a plain hit.

is that the bikes way of trying to be ahead of quads? since jon did the flip over the train on tv now he has to go do that?
I thaught it was alittle bit overrated i mean congrats to him but i dont think thta they shoulda made such a big deal about it. I mean you cant even compare him to evel kneval and his son because they would not even dream of having the suspention metzger and his boys ride with

Funny you say that, because the producers must have seen the show on discovery because they did a bad rendition on the computer graphics and the layout of the jump that look like a cheesy knock off of the show.
And epsn only gave Mike a few week notice on the jump. So im sure when they had the idea, they had to shoot back with something....who knows though
