  • dingal Says:

    wow , what a waste of time money and resources for a simple backflip. oh well, simple minds , simple pleasures. red bull needs to step up their ideas and actually get creative. have these guys use their talent to do stuff worth watching.

  • langston103 Says:

  • MMASTERS Says:

    NICE MADDO!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Brad Says:

    What a waste of money? It was all over the BBC and a lot of major channels. Promoting motorcycles in the mainstream media is not a waste of money, to a large number of the public, and especially companies such as Red Bull.

    Thats a 500cc 2 stroke.

  • Luca Says:

    very disappointing he's not wearing a neckbrace!!! come on maddo its a back flip over a bridge. ride smart be safe!

  • colin Says:

    no thats his everyday yz250. he wouldnt need a 500

  • Cody Says:

    Waiting to see a video of you doing anything semi-talented on a dirt bike. Note to self: the powers that be shouldn't waste 'money and resources' to entertain the public unless it is for something absolutely mind blowing. Additionally, despite nobody having ever backflipped a bridge, this stunt cannot be deemed 'creative'. Not sure why you'd post a negative comment about a video with good intentions trying to promote the sport.

  • matthew Says:

    that might not have been the most insane thing red bull has done but it was still awesome. you have no appreciation for talent

  • mjx30 Says:

    I know this is hard to do it but if you put all the freestyle riders to do that, alll of them are able to do it so I´m agree with dingal, that is just making a Backflip with a big landing……….I´m not impressed at all

  • gummby85 Says:

    Quit being a pansy.

  • Jeremy Savoy 917 Says:

    wow dingal your a f'in waste of life let me see you back flip over a bridge…i hope you get cancer and die jesus i bet ever time you throw a leg over a bike you pee you panties

  • 917 Says:

    send me a video of you doin a backflip even 15 ft off the ground and i might take you seriously…..your damn joke sitin behind keyboa, have some respect you obviously dont know whats it like too backflip a 215lbs motorcycle even into a foam pit or you wouldint be talk that a shizz for lack of a better words i cant use on this forum………your a faggel biznitch pussalia mother trucker go take a dingle in the rear….. i bet youll love it

  • 917 Says:

  • savoy Says:

    your lame let see you do some thing even slightly talented and creative id bet a million you wouldint do that or you eat pavement you cant even come up with a better name then blah gimmie a break

  • Marlow57b Says:

    and it wasn't a simple backflip……. he threw in a no hander…..

    haha

  • Marlow57b Says:

    seriously he obviously feels cofident enough that he'll nail it so y should he… i know i dont

  • Anonymous User Says:

    That jump was super lame… the distance was what? 30ft? The bridge wasn't even separated more than 10-15ft, I'm sorry but I have to agree with the others, Lame Jump/Lame Trick.

    Flame all you want, it's funny to see the spelling and pronunciation; truly makes me laugh.

  • Anonymous User Says:

    Agree 100%, every single person who rides freestyle could backflip that. If you are going to do a stunt and do it with such media coverage, make it worth seeing. That was pathetic!

  • Xyer123 Says:

    Maddo, you suck. Drag Red Bull out and have all those TV cameras and perform a piece of *&$% backflip? Seriously, WTF.

  • t pain Says:

    im relly sad that he is not wearring a neckbrace but he is relly sick

  • macce Says:

    I must say that it didn't look gnarly at all,what was that a 25foot flip?..Compare this to the Vegas long distance or that crazy step up/step down thing it was pretty lame.All that money and effort could have been used for something much more spectacular..But ok, i guess this will roll around the web and various "ten a clock news" around the world wich is all gooooood for motocross…

  • Twig323 Says:

    its about doing something he wanted to do. It may not have been the hardest and like others said almost every freestyler probably could have done it, but they didnt. The advertising used to do that jump will bring in companies millions. None of you would attempted that. Maddo's a badass end of story.

  • Ricky Says:

    can you even wear a Leatt to flip, does it restrict the head too much to get rotation?? i dunno! but yeah i bet Tony Hawk could do a nothing over it, i was expecting more maddo !!lol

  • isaac Says:

    hey dgizzy that a 250 ya dumb ass! TWMX rules!!

  • dingal Says:

    i love how easy it is to get all you losers into a fit throwing match, i'm sitting back and laughing my pee filled panties off and loving it.

  • mtnbkr26 Says:

    Hey Dingal-berry, why don't you go flip something? Not worth watching? it wasn't that long ago a flip was considered impossible and now its not worth watching? Go back to your video games little boy.

  • CM Fade Says:

    A new era for freestyle!
    Fade

  • brooklyn Says:

    hey dingal go shoot yourself in the face! now that would be worth watching!! lol

  • Jones618 Says:
