X Games Evo flips end over end (video)

All,

For those of you who might have missed the rally finals during the X Games, here's a video I took of the Evo 8 trying to making the jump... fliping end over end.

Uploaded to photobucket... link works

Enjoy...

Saw it happen, it sucks too because even before they crashed and Mirra crashed the evo was dominating. Hopefully next year there will be a stronger Mitsu presence :P
