How fast was Levi Lavalle going on his double back flip?

[jdtech65]

As the title states I am trying to figure out how fast he was going when he launched the ramp on his double back flip. I remember the commentators mentioning the speed but I can't remember it now. Trying to solve a bet with another guy, we don't agree on the speed. Anyone remember hearing how fast he was going?

 

[1Fast68]

target speed was 15 mph

i heard 15 i call bull****.how can you go 55' in the air at 15 mph

 

[helmethair]

thats the target speed until he hit a certain point, after that he pins it.

i heard he commentators say 15 but like blu du stated hard to believe you can go over 55 feet in the air and then over shoot his landing ramp

Yeah it seemed like a lot slower speed than I thought it should be. More than I'll ever try.

idk if he was at 15...still crazy

They said 15 but that was to the bottom of the ramp. From then on he pins it wide open untill he lands!!!

they also stated that they added weights to the track to get that to spin over 100mph in the air

Did you see that he almost gets nailed by the camera that is flying by on the cables he hits?

thats how i understood it, he was going 15 mph until he reached the bottom of the ramp and then held it WFO!

I know what your talking about I reember seeing pictures of it before he took off and it looked like they botled rectangular pieces of metal to the center belt of the track.
