    Dave our mechanic at the show has footage on his video camera. He will upload it when he gets a chance.
    To make this back flip even more impressive, Thunda actually landed about 15 ft after the take off point, so more like a fmx backflip.
    Hopefully this will get Clive some more bookings over in the USA

    Not really a backflip.He went over the table top and nosed into the backside of berm that formed from the monster trucks and tufftrucks turning on there race course. he stabed the gas and it went over back words landed on the roof and rolled sideways back up onto its wheels. Not knocking clive at all. Just it wasnt a backflip that people are thinking of

    He crashed into the berm and the truck pogoed over. He probably didn't know where he was at. Then he rolled in the evening freestyle and Special Events like usual hit the RII before he could steer into it and save it. I hate seeing that.

    While the RII is a good safety feature it just always seems to bite trucks on a freestyle all the time

    Most definitely not a complete backflip... but that is basically my concept of how a forward moving backflip will work.

    Looks like it hurt though!
