Normally Tom travels all over the world to compete in the BMX park discipline, but due to the Corona virus this was no longer possible. Sitting at home a lot, Tom came up with the idea to build a gigantic ramp in his backyard and then try a world first: the landing of the 360 quadrupple downside tailwhip.

Knockout 2 Times By Crash
His journey to greatness was not easy though, Tom had to give up the fight twice due to two hard crashes that knocked him out twice and broke his collarbone in addition to the concussion. This ensured that Tom spent more than a year with this one trick. On October 1, 2021 it was finally hit in at Tom’s home in Barbanter and we can officially say that he is the first person in the world who has landed this trick.
