Jim Dechamp - (Frontflip) 08 X Games Best Trick

[cra2]

the bike landed it perfectly.

if only the rider had stayed on.

[bpham10]

@cra2 no, he wouldn't have made it, the only reason it landed perfectly because he pushed the bike away when he was falling, causing the biking to turn

[LeigoBoar]

@bpham10 dude the bike wouldve landed fine with him on it, it was already at like 340 degrees he wouldve landed, maybe not perfectly but he wouldve

[bpham10]

@LeigoBoar thats not even close to being at a 340 degree, if you watched closely, you can tell he didnt have enough momentum, and plus, even the commentators said "he's crashing" before he crashed

[bennettben1016]

@bpham10 your a freaking idiot lets see you do anything on a dirt bike ass hole. talk shit get hit bitch.

[bpham10]

@bennettben1016 wtf LOL take that tampon out of your ass and stop pmsing you goon.....wtf did i do?? Im not being an asshole you fuck, im just saying what i see

[bennettben1016]

@bpham10 loves

[bpham10]

@bennettben1016 no homo?

[sagextrm]

For a front flip there should be a seperate ramp and a softer landing area with more loose dirt me thinks .

[Epicness271]

Even though he crashed Jim Dechamp proved that the front flip is possible

[dcflyboy]

:11 The bike knows what it did, so it makes a quick getaway before the cops show up.

[t0m193]

BEST TRICK!

[dhdsjim]

thank you!! those who know. i fucked up. you try to ride in the stapes center then talk shit.

[dhdsjim]

i thought i was over the landing not on the flat. that is why i bailed. thank you everybody who knows and made good comments!!!

[trasters]

if he tried to finish the trick, i think he would not crash

[rabbswoman420]

I've seen that guy try this trick a few times and the out come is always diff. not sure if you can pull it off everytime but i fukin wont try it... fuk ballz of steel jim should get balls of gold.... Crazy Bastard

[greeneyedsomething]

Shit that hurt just watching, poor thing.

[SHYSHILLY]

why he let go? he had it... but yeaa jim is a beast..

[Drummingman7]

@SHYSHILLY he let go because he overshot the ramp. he wouldve broke his nuts if he landed. also, he was probably scared, and thats just the natural response.

[00kelevra00]

Sooooo, does the bike get the gold for pulling it off and landing it???

[moto51legend]

the bike landed the frontflip :o

[UltimateGodofMetal]

I thought he was gonna made it, but i dont know why he drop the bike. I hope he come back to the ramps any time soon

[FelJocke]

@UltimateGodofMetal he actually have landed the first front flip with a bike a while ago.

[cloudkap]

If you think he would have been better off staying on, it's obvious you dont ride bikes.

[qwertylolize]

if he stayed on he could of had a better chance of landing and getting gold

[CollateralDmage]

it looked scarier by seeing his hangtime in that end of the flip., nice judgement call for the bail

[brantj12]

man gotta hey but he almost got it but the bike rode away

[xDaWgx2]

sexy. good try haha. but failed

[brentonreid]

ehhhh close enough lol

[xXfReeStyLeSk8RXx]

little different from a mountain bike haha

[warriors922]

looks like he coulda landed it but he thought he couldnt but it was awsome

[phil656565]

@warriors922 looks like it would have underrotated, remember once his body comes off the bike that loss of mass allows the bike to spin faster

[warriors922]

he thought he wouldnt land it. it looks like he woulda landed it

[warriors922]

it was awsome though

[brentonreid]

went to crusty demons today at cairns australia and saw jackson strong land the first ever front flip :]

[mrpomerleau]

@brentonreid that was the longest not first

[Jessicagnade]

He tried it again in nitro circus, the MTV show from travis pastranan, and he did it the first time i believe.

hes the best!

[iycecube]

@Jessicagnade he did it 3rd time dumbfuk

[Jessicagnade]

@iycecube i repeat: ''and he did it the first time, i believe'' I BELIEVE.. who's the dumbfuck here?

[102cgomez]

good thing he didnt get paralized like stephen.

[keeby211]

he finally does it on nitro circus

[m3dyon3y]

Muito loko esse jim é dezoitão!!!!

[TheDanxboi]

he  broke his back

[BreakThrough209x]

@TheDanxboi How the fuck did he break his back if he moved he leg-_-

[foxracing279]

@BreakThrough209x you do know that your not paralyzed when you break your back right? its when you break your neck that you wont be moving your legs. and jim did break his back on that jump

[christianbangs]

I think thats the most hardest trick ....

[TheTopRockerz]

haha the cycle landed without him :P

[noutism]

he's a hero (:

[impleasen]

that guy has bigger balls then any of you

[ninemen123]

@impleasen No he just has more money than me, and he did have to begin with

[MrShabobo555]

lol wasnt that the jump when he broke his back?

[Dazexx]

He landed the trick tho ;) but not in this movie

[charlieorrin]

he broke his back you , shit cunts

[xXPullTheTrigrBichXx]

U guys who say he could have landed r dumb fucks he fuckin over shot the jump dumb fucks!!!!!

[DiaboloBros]

Yeah he did, but even if he would have mega wiped from the motorcycle, I think he would've had a lower probability of injury if he had held on, at least for a little longer. Sucks to land with absolutely nothing to break your fall.

[Rikokaspar28]

wel the cycle land it :D

[jackpasut]

yer he did break his back thats wat they said on nitro circus

[150ftrek]

did he break his back?

[twitchymxracer]

He broke his back on this crash! ass holes!

[jwctex14]

More than 4 feet. About 9-10.

[KakkaLol]

@999KX250F999 he broke hes neck asshole

[clubpenguinacounts]

he shouldnt of let go he could of made it

[bikerpro31]

no, he would have crrashed.. you can see where his bike landed, and also, he lost his rotation halfway through,,

[clubpenguinacounts]

@bikerpro31 well look his bike made it

[bikerpro31]

yea but it landed like flat. he would probably have crashed, that would be a huge impact

[DarahCoolz]

if he hadnt let go he woulda made it

[thomaskawaxxx]

i would stay on the bike, maybe hard landing on the back wheel bud he may had it  right there

[walklb]

omg he just lost his balls before landing.. he just pussed out there...

[etmoto75]

he had that i dont know y he bailed.

[PS3N]

you can see that he puts out his head and see the ground faaar away down and that may have scared him

[etmoto75]

ya that might b true they jump freakin high

[sk8er9jrj30]

god that sucks hard

[vviiking]

he landed it on nitrocircus after his broken back in soft dirt

[aqualad22]

ya he pushed it... but it was danm close if he hadnt let go

[zelinski23]

still epic

[tripl3helix]

ya the bike lands right, but watch when he dismounts it. He pushes it forward and helps it fully rotate. So he wouldn't have landed it at all. But it would have been close

[gwowguys]

It's so little, it would have work with out

[Joe77Duffy]

He probably would have landed it because watch how the bike lands.

[muylst]

the bike landed right

[SgtPepper4815]

I wanna see him try it again, this year!

[bmac426]

ouch broken back lol and 3 months l8er on nitro circus he does the first frontflip after like 3 attempts lol

[DirTyOhGee]

He broke his back on that fall??!?!??!?

:|

[Token96]

yes he did

but in nitro circus he landed it 3 moths after :)

[norcodude666]

beebe your a fucking loser why dont u do that u pussy ass peice of shit i bet u coulnt even nac nac jack ass

[rayseakan10]

he could have had it if he didnt let go, well mabey

[StaticDonut]

Jim.. did.. it.. on Nitro Circus.. he got the world record of the first front flip on motocross.

[beebe50]

that was a smooth crash. whats he wining about. get the fuck up dude this is motocross and fmx theres no time to cry about injuries. just get up and retry.

[jjisaac0618]

he's "wining" because he broke his back.

[mxracer247888]

Hell I would be wining if that happened to me to. Hell it is hard to get up just from crashing and landing on your back from getting the wind knocked out of you. So you know that had to hurt

[xmonsterxme]

dude, he broke his back. you can't exactly just get up from that. it's not like you would ever even attempt the trick yourself. jim actually did complete it a few months later which is pretty fucking impressive.

[funksta818]

he broke his back i'm sure you'd be whinning like a little baby too

[sk80element]

Dechamp is pwnage

[drewsaledge]

that is aweome. but was he badly injured?

[Sk8eRollie34]

he broke his back

[343mxracer]

so close

[dirtbik35]

ya i know i was there at the xgames and i saw him do that right in front of me!

[TripleShot333]

Did you know he havebroke is back on that

[trippinballsss]

yea jim the champ is the shit

[asaaqas]

atleast he reedem him self

[scorpicus579]

how??

[asaaqas]

he finally landed it

[scorpicus579]

thanks!!!

[asaaqas]

YOUR WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

[r0cd0x]

ouch there goes his T12 vertebra

[Eduardo12388]

i think he would have landed if he didn't bailed, or at least it would have been a smoother crash

[Separath4]

he broke his back

[ACOGallTHEway]

his bike landed

[bhackett777]

i just love how it landed it 14 weeks later

[gsp1179]

3/4 front flip to ass buster! very nice

[tripledmm8]

Yeah! sweet.

[tripledmm8]

That's not a broken back.

[umpdoubleump]

dude he broke his back

[ByTheWaySide17]

your fucking retarted he 100 percent broke his fucking back for like 14 weeks cock sucker its called nitro circus try watching it ass hole, why dont u go shove a dick up ur ass and get railed so hard u break ur back.

[Jmsnsaw2008]

You're calling him "retarted"? It's actually spelled retarded. Retard!!!!! Oh, by the way, retard. You also mispelled something else. You're stands for You Are. Why don't you go shove a dick up your ass and get raild so hard you break your back. Then go back and get an education.

[ByTheWaySide17]

Go play guitar hero some more fag!!!! cute youtube account douchebag lmao your a homo

[Jmsnsaw2008]

Keep on proving my point of how much of a "RETARD" you are. How am I a homo? I married a man. And I have a vagina. So you have your facts wrong, buddy. Please go back to school. They also teach you the difference between boys and girls. It seems as though you may have some trouble in that area.

[ruckfules619]

youtube flaming is much like the special olympics,

u may win... but your still a retard

[monsterenergysx]

yeah he had a compresed fracture in his back

[KevinDC5]

jim is has to be the most craziest mountain biker in the world but hes really good

[CasinoRiches]

Thats sucks. It would have been cool too. Because Jim and Travis are best friends, and it would been awsome to have both of them have the 2 biggest jumps in x-games and freestyle history. HE HAD IT PERFECT!!!WHY DID HE BAIL..hahaha..watch the video of him trying it in the foam pit..he gets it perfect everytime there too

[roderber]

wow yea he had that

[xUrockkenx]

dude i think he couldve made it if he just held on to the bike but that was still sick

[sarkasmi83]

Yeah, I bet it's SO HARD to figure out if it's going like planned or not, when you can't even see forward from behind the bike. But the bike landed perfectly and drove off alone, so yeah, I really think he would've pulled it off if not for the lack of faith.

Can't blame him though. INSANE amount of balls just to try it. I'd never have it in me.

I HOPE he'll nail it eventually.

[ididthisjustbcuz]

he did it on a show called "nitro circus" its on mtv

[CasinoRiches]

If he did land it though, there might have have been alot of pop off the fron of the bike which might have thrown him off, but he should definitly try that again

[CasinoRiches]

Yeah he definitly had it easily, I geuss he didnt realize how perfect he had the rotation and everything, he was probably a little nervous so he just bailed

[pb3006]

he is stupid he had it ,but he let go

[rm125144]

i think he woulda had it

[leedade]

when is the 2009 x games best trick?

[ericforman65]

usually beginning of august

[xxakhitxx]

that is BADASS!!!

that was sick as

[murrfurr63]

dang dude if he didnt bail he could of landed it his bike even landed it. if only hewas on it

[sunburylionsrule123]

that would be the best trick in the century if he landed it

[MXmat52]

he would have landed it....tsk tsk

[bombasticfantastic32]

its a shame he didnt make it though

if he did make it...do you guys think it would have been a bigger deal than the double backflip?

[superstarshoes]

definitely!

[atomicchuckle]

defenitely...but the double back is just fuckin ridiculous...lol

[linkinparkians63]

OMFG he would of got that if he didnt let go

[caleh1989]

need a bigger jump

[garrettzkool63]

he compressed his verabrae 3 of em i think

[whiteguy4u]

ya. i coulda done a duble frontflip. twice. woulda been redonkulous. hoes.

[skatr4life2]

make a video of u doing it dumbass, have sum proof u can do it!

[redrifles]

I think its funny that you think if he would of stayed on he would have landed it. i mean do you even own a dirt bike.

[YoohanYamahaprostuf]

no he couldent land it, if you lock when he jumps of he throwngit away...

[coalsonfire]

yes, i own a 2-stroke YZ85, and a lot of experience on it, hey man you probably know more than i do about this than i do,

he might have landed ON the bike but not rode out of it, he was coming in too far away from the landing, if he had landed it, he would have busted his ass for sure.

im not trying to be any kind of a smart ass.

[renegade19674]

thats exactly what i was thinking of

[stuman1650]

oh yeah, the landing would have been nasty, but he could have done it, what he should have done was stuck with it and at the last possible moment just hug the handle bars

[coalsonfire]

Yeah, That could have worked, He should have had a plan

Travis Pastrana had a bail-out plan on the double backflip if the rotations didn't come around, he should have had a stick with it plan and a bail-out plan, Im suprised he didn't because Pastrana was coaching him on it.

[stuman1650]

I watched a video of travis explaining the double backflip and if you watch it in slow motion or just pay close attention you can see he finishes the first flip before he reaches his highest point so that he can see how much more time he has, then he throws in the 2nd flip

[bropie9000]

Ummm even Travis Pastrana said that he could of landed it if he didn't bail out....

[Gubourn007]

would have probably winded himself on the bars and had a crazy sketch landing.

[lilyandjack]

better than breaking his back

[fmxcr250fmx]

he actually did break his back...

[lilyandjack]

yeah i know. That's why I said that....lol.

[kittykiller897]

Yeah he was going to ride with Travis in Rally later. Obviously he couldn't with a broken back....

The Nitro guys are always pushing the limits. They're all incredible.

[DJMateo904]

He broke his back... on that "not so rough" fall.

[coalsonfire]

broke his back? damn so i guess he wasn't able to do rally on sunday.

[cmooreou]

nope, but travis got colin mcrae's old co-driver and they won gold

[crenger]

"Jim Dechamp attempts the first ever frontflip on a motorcycle"

Street bike Tommy attempted 2 frontflips in travis pastranas nitro circus 3

[coalsonfire]

dude im not not saying he's gonna stop the world with his frontflip, or that he's better than anybody, the fact that he brought that shit to x games best trick

and he's not even a motorcross rider,

he was travis pastrana's rally car cordanater

travis saw that he could pull it on a BMX bike and he told em he should bring it to the x games, you gotta respect that man.

[kiloboba]

Good try! and not to rough of a fall considering the odds.

[NinjaNick21]

i think its funny how the bike lands but he doesnt

[coalsonfire]

yeah he had the rotation, if he had just hung on to the bike he would have stuck it.

[whyallacodya]

hey that was INSANE jim you rule
