He just won the first day of the World Heli Challenge and threw a bunch of crazy tricks including mistys, double back and front in a freeride comp.
We can see a bit of footage of him in this video


Also on the event's website, they made a crazy good bio of him.
They also said in freeskier's coverage of the event that a bunch of riders threw doubles and triples on a wind lip at the end of the last day. I bet it was Mike Wilson that was throwing triples !

wilson is.. p. probably one of the craziest people i know i think, he'll look at somthing thats completly rediculous, and i dont even think that it crosses his mind that people look at it and its rediculous, he sees it, thinks its do able and goes for it.

the man doesn't know the word "FEAR" .

Wilson is still sick, but him at superpark a few years ago was just nutz, he redefined big and style at that shoot, his misty five stiffy still burns bright in my memmory.
