HOLY SHIT :eek:

I could watch stuff like this all day. Just the huge amount of talent and skill it takes to get a bike to do those things is unreal. Jumping off a dirt jump and doing a couple back flips is one thing, but imo these guys on flatland have more skill. Try hopping up on a curb much less over something 6 feet. Makes me want to get on my bike and head into Boston. Fenway DJ's anyone?

I too could watch that all day. I'd love to see him in person.

3:30 till 3:39!!!!!!!!!!!!!! unreal

Danny is a trials rider first and foremost. He and another guy used to be known as the trialskings and rode for planet x bikes.... they were fucking nasty and he clearly still is. He has gone a little more urban/DJ in the past several years and his melding of the two styles has really come together nicely. He's a pioneer.

I used to ride stock trials and rode a mkIV planet x zebdi that was built really fuckin nicely. Gave it up when I realized I just wasn't that great
