Last Trick

Much like the cigarette one has in front of a firing squad, what is the one trick you would do off of a cliff?  Maybe you have a parachute, but I'm aiming at the very heart of flatland with this question...under some bizarre circumstance you have to flee on the bike and get the notion that doing trick x would somehow save you...what would that trick be???

For me, i would do a cliffhanger and then hope I get to relive one of sly stallone's best big screen performances...by hanging by only my finger tips...somehow the bike has adhered itself to the bottom of my feet.

Hang 5, get to the edge, jam the brakes and let go.

A backwards trick would be sweet, so you could give your pursuer the finger...

I'd kick a whiplash right as I went off the cliff, so I could hopefully "pull" a ton of whiplashes in the air and go out in style.

Or, maybe I could whiplash so fast that it would turn into a propeller and I would fly off into the sunset.

This is one of the stranger threads I've seen  :)

Be real Rob. You'd do a hiker, slip, fall, and take the cliff with you.

When Rob falls, he falls hard :)

A cliffhanger!  Bad pun but I just had to say it.

Hang five to forward flip off the cliff.  Might throw in a no-hander while in the flip.  Might as well squeeze in some variations while I am at it.

I was thinking about it today riding, except it was a whopper to doom...could be a double could be a crazy amount depending on the cliff.

I would do a hang glider off the cliff knowing its the only trick to safely land you on the ground.

upside-down wheelie...when i get to the edge, i'd attempt to do a forward flip as well, so that i could do the first (and last) forward flip upside-down wheelie i've ever done.   :beer:
