Title: Video Of The Day: Pete Brandt - Skyflip Finale from 'Persevere'
Post by: Mr News Bot on April 05, 2013, 07:26:10 PM

I'm so stoked this is online! Pete's 180 bikeflip from crackhanger to hiker is insane! If that wasn't enough, after he hit it, he continued the link! Goosebumps here! Sooo good! Show Pete some love in the comments for this one combining originality with the will to Persevere no matter what!

What the hell! Very impressive.
Does someone know when it was filmed? Looking at his bike I assume it is some years old.
Martti did something similar in the KGB video. Who was first?

Martti did a regular crack-packer jump to hitch-hiker.

I would say martti's would have been more difficult but nowhere near as clean or smooth as Petes link,
well... The one martti did on the KGB vid was a bit sketchy anyways...

At I guess this edit was post impulsivity.


Gliding in a crack-hanger, the jump to hitch does seem likely and not near as scary as attempting it straight  from a crack-packer, sick nonetheless!

It's kinda weird, coz Pete is an amazing rider and has some epic bangers, yet on the KGB vid, his riding was fairly basic?

Could it have been, that it was toned down, so as not to out-shine viki and Martti?

Pete's DVD that this was a part of came out in 2007.

First time I met Pete was when he rode for Ozone in the 1990's. It is badass to think that the man has this much passion for his craft and just spends hours upon hours at the Clocktower putting in work. It's constant progression with him.

Another thing that really stands out about this clip is how clean it is. No bar scrape, and the tire stays on the ground. Unbelievable! He didn't just pull the trick, he freaking crushed it!

I remember when he was trying that and al the rest of the so called
bangers when I rode with him at the Clocktower!

this was filmed in 2007 for Persevere...Pete tells me he has done this no handed (crackhanger jump) which I believe without question, because he hit it sooo effortless.  Anyone that still hasn't gotten a Persevere DVD/ MP3 riding CD - just paypal me $10 - I"ll ship it free in the US.
 
There is a lot more than just the skyflip in it.  His whole life of riding is in there, there are 4 hidden sections of riding that you can find from pete's younger years to the crazy bastard that let him manual his face w/ terry Adams! Also a full vid of the intrkat jam in 2008, and an entire section of building a plywood backyard riding area and tons of crazy sh*t!  I have half a box left and then they will be extinct - get your copy while you can.
paypal me 10$ to:
 matlander@comcast.net
or hit me up!
Peace to all you crazy ass ridas out there...much love and respect always
-Matt

Ok, so filmed in 2007...
I think Martti and Viki filmed for a long time for Impulsivity. Does anyone know exactly who did this trick first (neglecting that it is not exactly the same but the idea is very similar)? Martti is doing his version on a Superpower frame with a Sarvet handlebar. So I guess it was before they released the Electro bar. Was this in 2008? It seems like both did their trick in the same time. Hard to say who was first. Someone should ask one of them.
In any case I have much respect for both of them, I am just interested.

BOTH of them are bad ass


I think Pete did it a few months before Martti
but I might be wrong about that!

He has always had the skill..from riding from 1987 until 1993
with Eric Emerson,Joe P.,Carly Garcia and all of us..to him just
showing up at the S.F X-Games one year and still getting on a
bike and blowing people away and continues to do it 13 years
later...
