(I've watched it several times, and it's obviously not possible. And I didn't even know what a tail whip was until I saw this, so obviously I am an expert.)

Thanks - I couldn't get it to work.

Yes - definitely not possible.

I do that all the time

 

[Levo-Lon]

Just brilliant

How many times did he crash before, and the ground looks very unforgiving.

Pedant Alert:
If you look very closely he does put his left foot down so I am disqualifying him as the jump was incomplete.

I'll have a go at that later...

I'd like to see a pair on a tandem do that.

That's from this year's Audi Nines - an invite only event where the best of the best work together to push the sport forwards.

Aldof Silva did this DH bike first...

Does the stoker have to stay seated?
