The Twix

BMX January, 31 2011
by David Lang

This is quite mad to say the least. Congratulations to Charlie Gumley from Beenleigh, Australia, for being the first to land a barspin and tailwhip at the same time. Something he calls The Twix.

UPDATE: Video with a clearer angle added.

Thanks to NaturalBMX for posting this video in the comments. Trick at 1:24.

    This looks sick but you can’t really see it clearly. Can someone get a close and clear shot of this trick or slo mo it or something cause its hard to make out how he is doing it. Props though.

    It was funny when the second angle put his flip flops on before he went to celebrate.

    Whoa, that pretty much set the bar for 2011. In the ballpark of Lacey’s toothpick 360 for sure.

    That dude in the first video needs to wash his mouth out with soap.

    You can see it pretty clear in this video.
