"That was a SICK flip, bro!" This slang is currently pretty popular. Before it, there were phrases like off the chain, dope, off the hook, etc.
Yeah, やりすぎ there means "being too much (in a good way)" and I did feel strange when I said "sickening", too. Hope OP didn't think the magazine thought of the European trend negatively. It is definitely a compliment.
