Thats who came to my mind, who knows world wide, but I have footage back in the day of Mark doing HC circles at SW and he was the only one that year doing them (at the contest).

*Unless we're talking about specifically spreader circles, any circle on the tank is a tank circle, right. Well so goes west coast rules at least.

Nick kinda answered for me, any O on the tank is what i was going by... I remember Mark trying HC O's at Daytona XSBA in '03... and he kinda had them a little later that year...

Spreader i have no idea...

Re: Who did the first tank circle?
I know my buddy Ryan Partin, started the spreader circle before they had ever heard of it........I didn't even ride back then. But i know he had em rock solid like near 3 years ago.....And it came up straight out his head to try em. He used to ride with Aaron Venible, and learned from him, and Aaron thought was crazy to try it, and pulled em off.

Re: Who did the first tank circle?
Of course.. Back then if you rode a gixxer.. It was a 750 or 1k. 600 was not an option.
