Standing Backflip on Skis???

Will a standing backflip on skis ever be possible? It seems impossible but some gymnasts can do standing doubles so I'm guessing one of those guys could at least do it on snowblades. I feel like you would just slide out and land on your head if you tried it.

Possibly with ski blade but it's really too much weight otherwise.

Ive seen a standing front flip on snowblades. It was actually like at 1-2 mph because he just got off a lift but its the same difficulty I'd imagine.

I definitely think it's possible. I'm pretty comfortable with flips on ground but I don't think I could do it so it would probably have to be a crazy gymnast.
