episode 84: Backflips from Rare DVD 'Flipped Out' with Carey Hart, Caleb Wyatt and Mike Metzger and the future
Have you watched the rare moto vid 'Flipped Out'?
No? Well, there's a good reason for that. Not many people have! But this week Clint Esposito and I were given super secret access thanks to Paul Taublieb, Executive Producer from Taublieb Films to watch one of the most in-depth videos discussing the first Backflips landed in Freestyle Motocross!
From Carey Hart's lead-in to Gravity Games in 2000 and the controversy of 'did he land it', to Caleb Wyatt coming out of the woodwork to stomp the first flip where he rode away from it and then Mike Metzger taking it to the next level only a short time later with the infamous Double-Double line ramp into dirt flips over 75ft!
Clint and I discuss this video and then the broader impact on the sport of FMX and what does it mean for today and into the future! Carey Hart (plus Jose Yanez before him) let the genie out of the bottle and we'll never get him back in!
Where to from here? We want to hear from you. Email steve@invertmanagement.com with your ideas or who will be the next guys to shape FMX!
Tune in to hear the companion discussion I had with Clint Esposito on the Clint's Rumble channel as we walk down memory lane watching one of the craziest X Games ever!
