The head rattling pursuit of the double backflip with Zane Kekoa Schweitzer
“This was my first day intentionally attempting the double backflip. I’ve most definitely had a few big backflips on the wingfoil over the past few years where I’ve over-rotated and imagined the possibility of the double- But seeing my friend, Titouan Galea, and fellow Waterman execute a double backflip here on Maui a few weeks ago It inspired me to go 110% at it.
It was a short, maybe 45 minutes to an hour session, and every single jump, I went for either a stalled backflip or double backflip, but the next session, I’ll be stomping this double backflip! Stay tuned!
