Thanks Sandy. Impressive height. Can anyone figure out what the jump is at 2:36? It looks like a backloop/air tack...

you would think though with all the shadowbox technology someone might have noticed the winning back loop was sick high but not really a back loop. :shock: :twisted:

I'm not sure what it's called 4j but it looks like a back loop followed by a forward.
My other hobby is channel surfing

That's Boujmaa Guillol doing a Dark Flip followed by a clew first back loop. Both rotations go through the eye of the wind. Called the "Blackshot" I think.
