Holy crap! A front flip! That takes a lot of balls to pull off.

HTF does he do that? Grab the front brake at the start of the ramp? Nice landing, too.

Looks like he jumps up and forward and grabs the front brake at the same time. Those guys usually don't use clipless and it looks like his right foot is not in "clipped in" position upon landing. Jeez, wonder how many headers he took to be able to nail that!

I don't even know how you'd practice a trick like that!

The video looks like it was cut right before he gets up close and personal with that side wall....
