00:32I mean I've had the idea of doing a bump front flip on a bike for a few years now
00:36and because
00:37for me it had some of the sort of highest risks involved, you know injury wise because
00:41I'm going over my head and things.
00:43We left it till the last day.
00:45I knew for the ridge this was going to be one of the sort of main tricks or new tricks
00:49I could do on this bike and something that maybe the world hadn't seen before.
00:53There's a tent exactly on the spot where we want to do the flip.
00:57I think it's kind of messed with Danny's head just a little bit.
00:59He had it in his head like this is the fence, this is what we're doing, we've cleared the
01:02space for it and now it's kind of thrown him off a little bit so we're just doing a bit
01:05of work on the fence.
01:06It's funny like there's no 300 foot drop on my left, there's no sharp rocks, there's
01:12no nothing, it's just like a front flip onto a beach but for some reason this stuff is
01:16way more scary.
01:17The only building we did as such was trimming a little bit of grass and we strengthened the
01:22fence a little bit and we borrowed some mats from the local primary school so I could try
01:26it for the first time.
01:35I knew because it was a fence it was going to be really hard to learn the rotation and
01:40on the first attempt I found that out because it really sort of catapults you around.
01:58it's not like that.
02:06That one felt a bit better, I tried this hard as a kid.
02:10Ah darn it!
02:16See if my back roller would never help that, if I wasn't on the mats you know I'd just
02:20land on my ass.
02:21say hold on.
02:22And eventually I kind of got the confidence to take the mats away and give it a go.
02:45It was pretty interesting trying it and you know it's a really nice feeling kind of dreaming
02:50up this idea and then actually making it happen.
02:53I think that's a really, it's one of the most satisfying things about riding and making
02:57these videos is kind of thinking of stuff that you don't know if it's going to work out and
03:03you know when it does it's like, yeah it's cool.
03:11Epic shots going on here.
03:13Quite literally I'm climbing the inpen with my bike.
03:38I think rightly so, everyone else on the team wasn't too impressed when I unclipped
03:43from the rope.
03:44But as I say I felt totally comfortable being there.
03:47I felt totally comfortable being there.
03:47I felt that man.
03:48I felt that man.
03:49You guys.
03:50Thanks so much.
03:51I felt so blessed.
