It takes a lot for anyone to come close to surprising Javier Villegas, the veteran FMX rider from Chile and former World Champion.

But Nico Ferreira came with the big tricks at the Brazilian FMX Championships now known as FMX na Roca with a Surfer take-off to Tsunami backflip over a Dirt Jump!!! And it was only like 65ft and mellow as hell on a step-down. How the hell did Nico get that done?

Either way, it was enough to narrowly take the win over Javier in Brazil!
