Ok, it’s not mountain biking, but it’s two-wheeled and, quite frankly, pretty awesome.

Here is New Zealand BMXer Jed Mildon landing the world’s first triple backflip during a show in his hometown of Taupo.

“This is the perfect result to three intensive months of practising and training for this moment,” said 24-year-old Mildon, whose trick was witnessed and approved by a Guinness Book of World Records representative.

“The impact and implications hasn’t sunken in yet, but I’m so pumped to have aimed for something once deemed impossible and made my dream a reality.

“Landing with both wheels on the downramp was the most amazing feeling in the world.”
