Used to do front flips on my BMX as a kid all the time...

Blast down 'Mount Mangle', line up with ramp made from some bricks you found and a mate's skateboard, watch the ramp collapse as soon as your wheel hits it, flip forward, get your teeth down, be cracked on the back of your head by the bike, stand up to recieve dumbfounded applause, decide you need more bricks next time
