Ah but is it a "Scura Tuck" or a "Freeman flip"? There was a difference, and you can tell from the pics which one it was.

this ones a freeman flip

the tuck is where you pull the bike back over!

i think abmx may have coined the phrase "freeman flip"
as scotty was too weedy to pull the bike back over

plus, like most of scuras home-made tricks - it looked a little gay to do so

This move has popped back up on loads of Cheesey MTB, trials, showman kack.

Yeah that Scura looked like he'd not  learnt any tricks on a bike and then improvised his way through a freestyle display by falling over with style ;D
He was unique and original though , I'll give him that  ;)

i got on one of their bikes and did a no footed endo, and a rockwalk

then the oohing and ahhing croud was gathered around me. the backhop man got annoyed and dissed my "heavy, small" bike and went off in a huff.

wow, never seen that clip before.  You still rock Andy...  :4_17_5:


I know how hard i've found some of those tricks after a long lay off.  Nuff respect for pulling the miami hopper.
Also still being able to barhop  :shocked:  I am really struggling to get one foot over my bars now....

The looooong surfer also very cool.  Can't remember, but did you also do back to back opposite 360s....


There's the advantage of keeping yourself in shape over the years.  Keep up the good work.  :daumenhoch:
