Thanks to YT, there are a million videos of dirt biking now. Yet this one hits different. From the choice of camera angle, choice of music, speed of the video, the choice of scenery, that background sky, the camera swivelling at the end to capture the sun and the single greatest whip ever done... This isn't a bike trick. This is poetry in the modern world. I just can't stop watching this.
WOW...Such an inspiring video. What the rider did and how the video was captured just puts into perspective on what I'm missing in life because of my fear of failure.
Imagine the feeling of flying through the air and turning 'til backwards and nearly upside down, and seeing and knowing where you'll land and knowing exactly when you have to turn it back the other way so to land straight and not crash. Amazing.
The spinning wheels create a very powerful gyro effect, You're just riding a gyro mid-air, takes practice to learn how to control it, and a few crashes LOL
@@anuragsingh-ed4gkit's not anything to do with strength. When you have rotating mass, in this case the wheels, they act gyroscopically. A whip is very common, and if you start the jump off correctly, the bike wants to rotate itself. So your forward momentum plus the spinning wheels allows for turning the bike in air, when also wanting to correct itself. Not to say this is easy, but that it requires more practice than strength.
@@AndyRock1very correct. Don't forget the engine itself is also acting like its own gyroscope rotating thousands of rpm. So it all has an effect in mid air.
@@alexanderortega5625 MHO more like aerodynamics - same as plane turns with changing shape of wings (so called ailerons on hinges). But instead of ailerons/rudder/etc he can use front wheel and his body.
@@norbert.kiszka Its whats called a moto whip, using ones body to whip out the back tire. Its not aero, its bodywork. On a bicycle i used to twist my hips to whip, then kinda straighten back up to get on track again.
@@leandroagonzalez3 no need to deliver something that obvious any other way. No one believes a man was running with a camera recording that. Even a 10yo child would have understood it had to be a joke. But I guess you are special 😂🤦♂️
Like a painting in motion. I’m 57 years old. Rode dirt bikes, skateboards and raced karts. I have the scars on my knees and elbows to prove it. Back in the day, you couldn’t tell me people would be doing these things. Keep it going!!!!!!! Excellent video!!!!
Amen! With the bikes we had 40-50 years ago? There's no way we could have pulled this off! But, we did pave the way for todays riders with our scrapes, broken bones and blood. And they'll pass it on to the next generation. Wish I could be around in 50 more years just to see where it goes from here.
@pavnazwisko9196 It's called centrifugal force and inertia. Its inertia that keeps his bike traveling in that forward Direction. Centrifugal force of his wheels spinning allow him to spin 180° and back without affecting his forward momentum. Its classic physics. Have you ever seen a science teacher spin themselves around on a turntable while holding a spinning bike wheel? Thats centrifugal force. Inertia is objects in motion tend to stay in motion unless affected by another Force of equal or greater strength in the opposite direction. Gravity is what pulls him back to the ground.
@@pavnazwisko9196 his body is constantly working in the opposite direction the bike is swinging.... its tough to explain.... he "throws the bike" into the whip but from the moment he leaves the ramp his body is "pulling the bike back in". it just takes momentum a while to stop the rotation and bring it back around. it truly does look physically impossible. core muscles STRONK!
@@ianzander5057 what? no. that boy is just using inertia and his abs, to throw the bike and pull it back around. what are you on about with the wheels spinning?
@@DonaldPrizwan No, don't try to correct someone just because you don't understand the answer. He's correct. Conservation of angular momentum is not very intuitive but it exists and that is what guides the bike back to its original orientation.
