As Lara Croft comes out to her bike, she lifts the kickstand, fires it up, leans it left & turns the handlebars in the same direction, revvs the engine, dumps the clutch, spins violently around through 180 degrees, lays off the throttle to stop the rotation, then digs into the throttle again and she's off like a rocket in the opposite direction that her bike was originally facing. What a slick move!! (Watching that one move in <i>Tomb Raider</i> was half the reason I bought a bike in the first place!)

Okay, so she had a stunt double. And I finally pulled the move off a dozen times or so successfully to the left-- still need to work on it with the other leg down. <b>So is there a universally accepted name for this move? </b>

did you notice that when she did that stoppie on the guys face and then shot her gun that she did it wth her right arm!!! Of course they must have put the brake lever on the left side just for her to do the stunt properly! LMAO!
