: Aaron Fotheringham is a real hero for
: conquering his limitations and making the
: rest of us look like real wimps. A double
: backflip to a landing ramp, not just a
: double back into a foam pit. I like his
: technique of getting up the speed to do it.
:
: Before you go to the site to read the story
: and watch the video, guess how he gets the
: speed up to hit the ramp.
:
: Is he getting towed in by a motorcycle? No.
:
: Is he getting towed in by a bicycle? No.
:
: Is he coming down some kind of a hill? No.
:
: Ski jump ramp? No.
:
: Think about it. Then go to the following
: site, read the story, then watch the video.
:
: Aaron Fotheringham proves to all of us that
: our only limitation is in our imagination.

: Aaron Fotheringham Double Back in a
: Wheelchair
:
: About 17 years ago, I bought a wheelchair
: and learned to wheelie it because I was
: inspired by a guy at my high school when I
: lived in the Philippines. He would wheelie
: his wheelchair and I thought it was so cool.
: He would come to the motocross races
: sometimes and we would talk. I learned to
: hold a stationary wheelie as long as I
: wanted, sometimes sitting in a wheelie and
: watching a 30 minute TV show. I went down a
: short flight of steps in my wheelchair and
: thought that was about as aggressive as I
: wanted to go. Aaron Fotheringham shut me
: down. He is the man. All bow to Aaron
: Fotheringham.
