i and seng was veri near tot the DirtJumps cuz we are taking some photos for ppl... then we were so close up! and it was during the DirtJump Competition... and in front of us! so near! we witnessed ah kiong doing a BACKFLIP! but he fail and bail hardly onto the slopes... it hurt man... he was injured on his backs, and hands... anyway everyone was required to wear gloves and helmet to join the competition... ah kiong was scratch by those sand when he fall... and there was many cuts on him... wa so near... tt we can feel the impact when he fall... we were shock...
a closeup view is defintely more shioking... and his bail makes his back wheel spoilt... b4 his backflip tries wadever he do was not smooth... he is so out of form...
then he went to borrow a back wheel from someone... and after that... he came back for the finals... and this time... he is damn hot! meaning he is getting to FLY! he do everything smoothly! TableTop, X-Up, 360, TurnDown... this few damn NICE AND AWESOME STUNTS!
but he tried backflip again but failed again... but he didnt bail till veri jialat...
Bailing means to fall badly... injured badly after not sucessfully landed on the tricks...
then after the whole DirtJump and DirtRace... it is the closing event of the day...

the first best trick is setted by ah kiong! a BackFlip! he landed the first backflip on SunSet Jams 2007! after about 5 attempted... he finally landed a BackFlip during the closing event...
then ah kiong himself... try to break his own best tricks setted... he tried to do a
BackFlip TurnDown!
he had failed 2 attempted... and then...
there was left with 3 last riders to set the record... cuz it is already 7pm... and they wanna end it soon... then ah kiong went first... he start paddling down the slope in a far speed... flow normally across the first jump... and at the 2nd jump... he did something that it freaking awesome!
and everyone CLAP AND CHEER FOR HIM!
HE FINALLY LANDED THE FIRST "BACKFLIP TURNDOWN" IN SINGAPORE!
