We spent a day last week at one of Nitro Circus‘ training facilities and got to witness an assortment of wheeled vehicles get launched into the air. Among them was the Sunday x Impakt Sidehack shown in the flipbook above. This is Impakt’s ‘Elite’ custom sidehack and it’s more dialed than ever! Loaded with Odyssey components, this 3-wheeler is well equipped to take on the toll of Nitro Circus’ ‘mini’ mega-ramp. A couple brave souls took on the challenge and though the first attempts were kinda sketch (see the video after the jump), we’re pretty sure they’ll be ready and sticking some solid jumps come tour time.

Also, add us on Vimeo and YouTube if you’re on there. We’ll be uploading random clips there for your viewing pleasure. Case in point: Dakota Roche Clip.

This was their first day ever riding a sidehack and attempt number 2 on the ramp. Their warm up to this basically consisted of riding around in circles at the bottom.
