BMX supremo lands flip with a nose wheelie (Video)

Ben Kenyon

We have so many questions about this video of BMXer Alex Coleborn.

What the hell? How the hell? Did he mean it? Was it all a horribly, beautiful accident? Is he some sort of gravity-defying angel?

The BMXer pulled off a technical ‘cash roll’ trick. But as he came down, he missed the down ramp and ended up landing it with a nose wheelie on his front wheel (or an ‘endo’ as the kids on my street used to call it).

Just watch the slo-mo video.

Not since playing Matt Hoffman BMX on the PlayStation 2 have we seen such wicked trickery (Okay, perhaps this world’s first quadruple back-flip was pretty spesh too).
