It was the first ever backflip in competition? I figured they have done it by now, since I saw it in a video like a year ago. Oh well, that's cool =P

I know what he said dees, =P What i meant was since it's been done in videos for a while now, they would have done it in competition already.

It's only been done once in a video by Jim Rippey. Quinlan has built a steel ramp now, and is doing them consisntantly. Unless someone else has done one in the past month these are the only two people who have completed a backflip.

I was watching Optigrab, (TB10) or was it TB9, where some guy in the intro did a backflip on a snowmobile, who was doing that one?

I think everyone's misunderstanding what I was saying, jeez =P

Haven't seen a 1080 done in a wakeboard comp, but I heard of a 1440 in a snowboard competition =)

That takes some serious minerals. I would have to have a handful of balls in my sky rocket to try that, if you know what I'm saying.
