i think only frontflips would work down stairs, like from flat..if you get a kicker or like a slanted takeoff before the stairs, backflips might happen
It's good, seeing the possibility is the first step... haha, and backflips would also be possible. The fact that I can't do bri flips without a tranny launch doesn't prove that they're not possible down stairs or on flat - same goes for backflips, plus there's a mental handicap of trying something dangerous and unheard of.

I'd like to see:

360 backflip a spine

John Radke doing his flip combos over a big box

a proper looking vert ramp run

a big pocket air

tailwhip to bs boardslide on a handrail

720 down a stair set

some off axis flip and spin combo that would make my jaw drop

but briflip is different, you can jump with a briflip, its alot harder to control your height with a backflip since you cant really jump that well and flip back at teh same time..pocket airs im sure have been done, 720 stairs has been done by villagefox and matt pate claims his friend drew has
 
i was just working on pocket airs not too long ago.

i really doubt that a flip will be done off a flat surface with a flip. bk pretty much said it all already

Im pretty sure it's possible to bunnyhop and flip back but even if not, it would be all about hucking yourself off a big drop with huge speed which is ALWAYS possible.
Yes, I remember villagefox and Matt Pate (he also claimed that he 720ed a 5 set) but never seen any footy. And Ive only seen Rad guys do small ones, and me, not over a full 90 degree pocket, still pretty hard though.

crazy skaters...wtf...and pete, i think if you anted to backflip off anything flat, youd hve to go wicked fast so your head would clear the edge...because like when i backflipped a bank hip, that gives you hieght, and my head still cleared the edge by like a foot at most, so from flat your head would either hit or like scrape the ground unless you were going really fast, and then even if your head clared, your front wheel might hit too

im still waiting for a back or front flip bomb drop of a quarter or ledge...fronts could be done relatively easily i suppose and backs are definetly plausible...dave mirra did a manual to backflip bomb drop i believe. i've seen scotty cranmer attempt a manual to frontflip

frontflips are possible, but definitely not "relatively easy" scottys landed bar to manaul to front, and dave mirras wasnt manual
yeah i couldn't think of a better way of explaining. Dave Mirra did attempt a manual to backflip bomb drop at the X-Games one year I think but he didn't land so thats why I thought that when he did land it he did with the manual.
