Backflips?

pete66 said:

I hope that's not right, where's Tomsey? Rhys was riding an 05KH with
profiles when I met up with him... he got all his stuff pretty cheap
though so probably is the same Rhys (Kember?). I think he was on the
brink of moving from Melbourne to Sydney...

He's a cool guy, modest and chilled out. He was right into his BC
wheeln, doing heaps of stuff I haven't seen in any vids. And on his uni
he was doing crankflips, 360 unispins, seatdrag & pretty much anything
else (backflips) within a couple of tries. That was all with less than
8 months of apparently on & off riding under his belt :eek:

Before you all go out and try hitting backflips, be aware that Rhys was
carrying on with various foot fractures and scars to show for all his
utter lack of fear. Quite funny reading this thread knowing it'd
already been done before the thread existed 🙂

Lol. Ok, different Rhys then.

that they talking about i'am I right?

Yup that's him. And if you look at the guy standing in the bowl, you'll
see me! I thought a video was gonna show up pretty soon after my visit
to Australia but they seem quite happy to keep it underground.

Alex Toms is the one to ask coz I think he's the only Australian who
knows what RSU is and knows Rhys.

I saw rhys only a couple of weeks ago riding at a big event in sydney
called 'Big exo day'. he still rides hard out but its not like u can
ask him to do a back flip on his uni and he'll whip it out right
infront of you. i havent even seen this back flip of his, but knowing
him i wouldnt be supprised if he has done a few, who knows!

Is it possible to do it on a pogo stick? I would think that would be a

That is just a backflip off of the unicycle, those have been around for
a while, we want to see a backflip with the unicycle. Although that is
still impressive.

That's actually a back handspring off the unicycle. For a backflip his
hands wouldn't touch the ground.
Still it's really cool.
