Frisby Wins X Games Gold with Snowmobile Front Flip [Video]

If you thought you’d seen it all on a snowmobile, freestyler Heath Frisby has once again proved you wrong. Frisby took home a Winter X Games Snowmobile Best Trick gold medal after he completed the first ever snowmobile front flip in competition on Sunday.

If mustering up the courage to even attempt a trick like that isn’t enough, it happened just moments after friend Justin Hoyer was taken off on a stretcher following a nasty crash when he attempted a double backflip. Hoyer was transported to hospital where he received X-rays on his right arm and left leg.

Frisby has now earned seven X Games medals in his career, including two gold medals in Snowmobile Best Trick. Check out videos of Frisby’s successful front flip and Hoyer’s double backflip attempt below the jump.
