He has never landed it he tried it at the double or nothing contest and theres a sequence in a wb mag. The crashes are too brutal to just keep trying and trying it though.

The first time I saw Darin try a triple front was at the 1997 Masters. He got 2.5 rotations before bailing and diving in head first. I had not seen him try again until this years Double or Nothing contest.

If you have Comcast on demand the video is there. I think it's sports-->outdoor--->Wild water----> pro ride ep1.
If I had my computer down by the box I'd conver it for you guys, but it would be a royal pain for me to move the computer down there
