i would think that you wouldnt want to hit a jump with that steep of a degree, i would think it would be better to do it like mike metzger did and a lil bit easier too.

Backflip on quad?

Pshh, i did that a long time ago.

I did it WHILE eating a cheeseburger.

And while sewing new socks.:)

i think it is extremly possable to do it in the near future, if somebody did it and landed it they would then have instant fame, the only problem would be mabye landing on your head?:ermm:

Just like many of you, Im surprised that I havent heard someone hasnt tried it already. It seems like a very risky stunt though...

Why not attempt it over water first?:)

:rolleyes:



The only reason it hasnt been attempted is b/c of the rotation. A dirt bike is half the weight of a quad, a bike is nothing compared to a quads weight, and a snowmobile has massive tracks to help improve rotation while in the air...something small tires is not going to be able to accomplish. Its only a matter of time before someone does try it, but it wont be easy. :ermm:

honestly dude, if you started busting out backflips or even trying. Companies would see it and give you what u want as long as there name is on the quad.

only reason no one did it on a quad yet is because no one has the balls to try it. :o its just as easy as a bike or sled doing it, just that no one has had the nards to step up and try it.... till now


this will all change very soon, leaving for california wednesday :eek2:

I think I was watching a show a while back when a guy from Australia did a back flip but I could be wrong I know he did some hellish jumping & is like a stunt guy over there. I can't remember were I seen it though:confused:

striker49 you said it cant be done cause we dont have the tracks going in the air or whatever. if you put paddles on then you would get more turn in the air but i dont know if that would work with the paddles just a thought.

After I get more into freestyle I'd be willing to give it a shot.......but not anytime soon.......I need to start riding again first...


August you gonna try it?????

Good idea, but how well do you think the paddles would do traveling up the ramp?
The only reason its much easier on a snowmobile is b/c the track is massive and helps greatly with rotation in the air.
Im not sayin by any means that it cant be done on a quad, but it will be a bit harder. When it comes down to it, balls is all its gonna take and whoever has the biggest. :eek:

I think you would have to have a steep ramp like thats one. The bike would have to be real light like an R. Lot of power. and big heavy tires to help with rotation. So when your in the air, you can punch it in the heavy tires will help you come around.. The ony problem if you come up short you will distroy your quad if not your shelf. It can be done.

The sleds have the extra power too :D

With this back flip thing, how many snowmobilers and dirt bikers actually do back flips? Not many, espcially on sleds. So don't just expect random people to start doing them and being an every day thing or even hearing about one, how long have people been dirt biking, snowmobiling compaired to quads.

I believe it will be done, its just who will feel comfortable enough to do it. Good luck Jon!

04-06-2003, 02:32 PM
i bet if the backflip is ever done it will be done by dana creech b/c he's pretty much tried ever thing else except the backflip,like that 360 on huevos 5,that was dope.i have tried a backflip but not the real thing i was just riding up a jump standing on the back and still holdin on to the handlebars and when i jumped the ramp i let go and jumped back and did a backflip but spinned to fast and landed on my butt and it hurt and i'm not tring it for a while now

04-06-2003, 02:37 PM
il bet u dana creech wont do it, ill bet hes not even too interested in freestyle anymore

300extreme#8
04-06-2003, 02:40 PM
but he might try it for huevos 6.it seems that he's doin real good this year since he's racin a crf450 based quad.and i like the #4

04-06-2003, 02:44 PM
i dotn think he wants to risk meessin himself up this year when hes doin so good

Hell, lets just put Creech on a 250ex and let him bust some stuff. LMAO! :D

04-06-2003, 03:10 PM
300ex is part of a learning curve why take a intermediate level quad and use it for pro level riding? besides muffs freind is pretty crazy on his 300ex, dont do nothing stupid, your not ready to do a flip and if a bunch of kids like u start tryin it its gonna be lawsuit heaven:rolleyes:

04-06-2003, 03:11 PM
Dana said he has no interest in attempting it on Exriders last week. I don't blame him, if Jon does this he wins the brass balls award. :devil

From Dana on a thread-

"I am not officially retired from freestyle, but I have no desire to attempt a backflip.

I am on the road now, and only have time to get online once in a while.

thanks"
