You know the rider, now watch him take the fight to Brett Rheeder during Red Bull Joyride 2016. We’re talking about Thomas Genon’s Silver Medal Run from last weekend, which had the chance of inching past Rheeder’s score of 93.

The Belgian rider was coming into the weekend with a few tricks up his sleeve and a rigorous training period. We can’t fathom how you can practice for a course like Joyride in good ol’ Belgium (which isn’t exactly known for its lively freeride scene), but Thomas Genon gets it done, including a massive 360 tuck no hander to add a little extra hot sauce to his run.

Tommy G won Joyride back in 2012 and was the last winner before Brandon Semenuk’s reign of leadership started (Brett Rheeder dethroned him on Sunday) and the aptly named Boneyard was just begging for Tommy to throw down whips and sick tricks.

Here’s a write-up of the tricks he pulled to secure the silver medal.

Oppo 360 – tailwhip up – 360 barspin on the SRAM drop – 360 barspin to click table – oppo 360 table – backflip barspin to tuck no hander – cork 720 – 360 tuck no hander – double tailwhip up – 360 inverted table down – backflip tuck no hander on the boner log – barspin – oppo tailwhip up – 360 tuck no hander down.

That’s a total of 3,240 degrees of rotation in a minute…Our head is still spinning!

Well done, Tommy! Congrats on the silver medal.
