Sam Pilgrim lands first flat drop front flip
Rosee Woodland Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 12.11pm
Sam Pilgrim has landed his first flat drop front flip (Robin Kitchin)
Is there no end to this man's talents? Sam Pilgrim's been busy this week, perfecting a whole new bag of tricks for the comps at the end of the season.
The latest new move from the British dirt jump star is the flat drop front flip, which looks as insane as it sounds. Check out the video below.
You can get Sam's take on how to perfect Superman seatgrabs in the Dirt section of the latest issue of MBUK, and watch him hit up a giant airbag! MBUK 242 hits the shops on Wednesday. Subscribe now and get yours early next month...

First, last, or whatever - I'd love to have the balls to even try that, let alone to be sufficiently committed to succeed!

With all dues respect to sam, he's not the first, and not even close.
Check the comments on pinkbike, links to many videos of people doing it including this rather smoother attempt:
