Double backflip sees Sheehan soar over rest

Donnnybrook daredevil Josh Sheehan has added another illustrious title to his ever-growing resume, winning at the X Games in Austin, Texas at the weekend.

Sheehan finished first in the Freestyle Motocross competition, beating his previous best of bronze he had won in 2015 and 2013.

The 30-year-old finished a strong final set with a patent double-backflip which grabbed him a score of 93.33, which was enough to get into first place and beat fellow Australians Rod Adelberg and Clinton Moore.
