[edit] Slackline First?
I added the backflip, line-to-line, as one of the sections. However, if you watch the video closely in the slowed section, he actually bottoms out on the ground when he lands it. Even though, he is on the line, bottoming out on the ground probably helped stabilize the landing. The trick is probably harder and more "pure" if done without using the ground in the landing. Is this enough to invalidate this trick as a "first"? Spolizzano 19:22, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
I got rid of it. It doesn't seem that significant and can't be verified. Here is the text I removed, in case it is verified or deemed significant.
