The “M/M 360″

I saw this on vital with a pretty heavy claim underneath it, “Mike’s new trick called the M/M 360 its a (superman seatgrab indian air 360). Anthony Napolitan was the first to do this on a BMX, but he is the first to do it on a mountain bike! Soooooo Gnarly “. Is there a difference between Andreu’s and Mike’s? Let me know what you think.

Andreu’s is corked, Mikes is cleaner… Andreu did it first, end of story. They already claimed that in the current issue of Decline.

I am pretty sure that Mike Parenti did one of these in the late 90′s. Anthony Napolitan was not the first nor was Andreu even though that little mexican is a bad ass and his are better.

OK, so hes like the 4th guy to do it and people rename the trick? It doesn’t work that way… Great trick and rider but why would you try to rename a trick if you know someone did it already – bmx, mtb, and mx obviously share tricks. You don’t rename it just because you did it on a certain bike first.

Miron had a pull out poster in Ride of this like 15+ years ago. No mountain biker is going to invent a new trick… Ever.

honestly I respect both riders for what they’ve done…but
I think Mike M is getting cocky…sure hes amazing and shreds harder than most anyone…but him doing the seatgrab 360 should speak for itself he doesn’t have to go
naming it after himself with andreu doing a slight variation of a huge moto double. he also is saying his cork flip is completely unique when I saw seminuk do the same thing in NWD 10. Mike is one of the most intense and dialed riders I’ve ever seen…but maybe he should focus on riding and less talk?
