Taylor Wright-Sanson, backflip, and Circus Smirkus
A friend from Saratoga, NY, US, Taylor Wright-Sanson, is performing with Circus Smirkus. They'll be touring the NE US for the rest of the summer. We just bought some tix for Monday, July 6, 1PM show in Saratoga, NY.
A sample of his riding is here. Note the backflip at 0:14..

He did the backflip last summer at OUI'08. It is in Isaac Steiner's OUI'08 video.

That was a great little video! They should call it "Riding on the Edge".
![]() Awesome backflip dismount. Now Taylor just has to figure out that his brain is worth more than about $20...

Circus Smirkus is great fun. Saw the show last year and the year before. Will be going this year too. All performers are under 18 years old. Last year, one of the performers was snapped up by Ringling.

Taylor is SOLID on the back flip and is an over-all brilliant wheel wonder!
My daughter Aerial is on Smirkus for her third year .... along with Taylor and the show is terrific and these performers-of-youngness love performing. The show is in a real tent with a real band and a wonderful cook tent, crew, admin etc..... See it if you can!
