You're absolutely right I think...I've never seen Terry do it without hitting the bars.  That would make sense too, to keep them where it's actually landable.

I would even drag them a bit after the landing. May reduce the risk of twisted ankles.

Although its very difficult Terry has pulled it a few times without hitting the bars. I watched Terry develop this trick and it was not an easy road.

No disrespect to another rider out there but I would be surprised and inspired to see someone else do this trick. Also with the consistency that Terry can pull it with.

I can also tell you this, I think Terry would be stoked to see someone else do it.  So if anyone else can put it up online in a video or something. It would be great to see.

Terry is recovering
dont worry he will be back soon.

heya i was there and you see me in the background
yeah let me tell you something

1) the surface there sucked as it was small and very slippery

2) it was like 103 that day he tried it so you slipped off the grip
alot as you were very wet just riding 5-6 minutes and people
were using their t-shirts as towles to wipe off their hands and
grips...saw Pete B. do it alot.

heya he has some way to go to land this but he is working on
it and he has made alot of progress in his riding and im not
saying this because they gave me a cool flatland t-shirt or
that they are smart asses sometimes.

I MEAN IT!
