Travis' New Trick Annouced!

Posted on Monday, July 20th, 2009

So for a little while Travis had his trick for X Games MotoX Best Trick under wraps and anything was a possibility. To the surprise of most people, he announced it will be a Backflip 360 No Hander. Apparently fellow X Games star turn Rally Driver, Dave Mirra kept bugging TP about the trick which Dave did on a BMX bike and eventually TP couldn’t take the harassment any longer.

Travis states “I am warming up with Double Backflips, that’s how much harder this trick is” and “It morphed into some kind of spinny flippy thing” which means we’re in for a show!

Australian Rider, Blake ‘Bilko’ Williams has tried to do the 360 No Hander, but let’s hope Travis doesn’t have the same fate.

This also means fellow Nitro Crew member, Jim DeChamp will not be going after the frontflip after he broke his back last year while attempting it. He later performed it on MTV’s Nitro Circus.
