French freestyle motocross star Tom Pagčs has launched off a 135m cliff to land a world first feat, producing a breathtaking double front flip in Avoriaz, France. With the 2021 motorsport season winding down around the world, the winter sport athletes are busy getting in their final preparations for the FIS World Cup circuit. Pagčs, a multiple Red Bull X-Fighters champion, decided to bridge the two different sporting seasons with an audacious stunt. The rider - who also has five X Games gold medals, two silvers and a bronze - wanted to combine freestyle motocross (FMX) and parachuting in a feat that would see him launch a double front flip off an Avoriaz cliff, land with a parachute and ride away. After a three-trick freestyle run on the pedestrian streets of the Avoriaz Alpine resort, Pagčs shifted into fourth gear and accelerated up a seven-metre high ramp (standard ramp averages 2m70) at 80km/h. He shot out over 55m from the cliff, doing a double front flip in the air then free falling on his motorcycle at 150km/h before deploying his parachutes for the landing 30 seconds later and 170m below. // Freestyle motocross pro Tom Pagčs is seen during the production of his Flight Mode project where he combined freestyle motocross (FMX) and parachuting in a feat that would see him launch a double front flip off an Avoriaz cliff in France on October 13, 2021. // Oliver Godbold / Red Bull Content Pool (Photo by Oliver Godbold / Red Bull Content Pool / Red Bull Content Pool via AFP)
