- Airborne Sonic “Kickflips” Between Two 50 Foot Ramps – Extreme Car Stunt Similar to Classic ’74 James Bond Film Action – Dyrdek & Fantasy Factory Cast Sign Autographs for Thrilled Fans – First Car Stunt for Dyrdek / Sonic Sub-Compact is “a Car for Firsts” – Amazing Sonic Stunt Follows “Bungee Jump” and “Skydive” December 2011, Valencia, California: Daredevil Rob Dyrdek proved that you can ride a new Chevrolet Sonic like a skateboard…but don’t try this at home! Rob Dyrdek and the Sonic made history in leaps and bounds as the famed reality TV star commandeered Chevrolet’s hot, new sub-compact in a gravity defying “kickflip” at Six Flags in Valencia. Automotive thrill seekers jammed Magic Mountain park to witness the 360 degree “kickflip” which utilized two 50 foot ramps – one to launch and one to land the specially wrapped Sonic. Dyrdek’s Sonic feat was evocative of the iconic automotive stunt depicted in the 1974 James Bond film ” The Man With The Golden Gun.” After the daredevil stunt was completed, Dyrdek and the cast of Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory signed autographs for his adoring fans. MTV-reality and action sports-star Rob Dyrdek worked all month to prepare his 2012 Chevy Sonic for a kick flip — a 360-degree rotation in mid-air that is more commonly performed on a skateboard. For the stunt, racing seats/seatbelts and a roll cage were added to the Sonic — which has the most standard safety equipment in the sub-compact class, including 10 air bags. Dyrdek
