Switchback Wheelie
I know that a switchback wheelie would have to be hard as *** and I'm not sure if its even possible but has anyone tried? If so, has it been documented on camera? Also, how bad did they bust their **** while trying? Just curious because I've often thought about it but don't remember hearing much about it.

i have seen a few switchback wheelies on video clips i've downloaded. i'll look through my **** and see if i find it. i remember seeing one but it was a really fat guy on a quad but he rides it forever even pulls a hand off and flexes at camera.

I seen it in a vid just the other day - Robet marley done it on a 4-wheeler, one handed.

I seen a guy on ripleys believe it or not doing switchback wheelies consistantly on a dirtbike - never seen it on a street bike.

Quads don't count- and yes a couple of years ago MIExtremes had a fatality. I don't remember his name, I think it was Carl and he used to do them but had a bad crash in front of a bunch of people and unfortunatly died in the crash.
