Default Backflip x 2?

Watching the X-Games last Sunday, I heard the commentators say a few times during Travis's runs that it's rumored he has successfully completed a DOUBLE backflip. Is there any evidence to back that up because that would be crazy. A double backflip would have certainly won him the gold, but I think the 360 wreck kept him from attempting anything really crazy.

Where will they end all of this madness,pretty soon they will have to limit out physiclly on what can be done.
My idea of freestyle is not tatoring it when I accidently fly off a razor at Coos Bay.

They showed the whole clip of it. From take off to landing in the foam pit.

I don't think you'll see a front flip anytime soon.

Go 100mph and at the lip of the jump slam on the front brakes, lean forward, and hope for the best lol. There is no way you could do one.

What they meant was he did one then landed then did another one on the next jump that was set up strait in front of it.

No that would make no sense because he and Nate Adams both did what you just described a few times and it wasn't a huge deal, just 2 consecutive backflips.
