...then I apologise but this guy is truly amazing. The little trick at 44" is awesome.
Danny is a god! ๐
he;as go'od.
He's definately getting the hang of it isn't he.
Needs some more practice. Cannae ride in a straight line or anything. ๐
He's a f*cking robot is what he is. Those back hop 180's down BIG stair set are just something unreal.
It's the bike, if you had it you'd be riding just as well ๐
I can understand an 11 year old getting impressed by this, but as Eddie Fiola once had written on his arse, 'tricks r 4 kids'.
Being able to just hop over something as high as those railings would be a very handy trail skill.
You can see a line back to Ryan Leech's Manifesto. The few moments when he does a set-up hop you know it's going to be a really difficult move.

You really are a miserable sod loddrick.
Gravity obeys him.
thats the only single speed id ever ride
Didn't find it anywhere near as impressive as his other videos, that was a bit disappointing actually.
Look closely and you can see the wires! ๐

It's really impressive on two counts. The first is how he manages to film to without me knowing. The second is the computer trickery he uses to graft himself over me and my bike.
his landing was a bit off at 1:19. shoddy.
I enjoyed that. Prefer the town-based videos to the countryside vids partly because I like seeing people watch in disbelief. Also nice to see him riding an area I recognise.
I have to admit that it's not his best video, but that is more of a comment on the otherworldly nature of his other videos, rather than a criticism of his riding in this one.
Where are those big stairs? I seem to remember a youtube vid of someone called kettle doing a MASSIVE drop down there.
used to be all about "hucks" off "knarly stuff"
that bloke kettle nearly nuts his own stem! danny does it with way more finesse
the stairs are here

they run from carlton house terrace at the top to the mall and st james' park at the bottom

Your joking right?
Actually having thought about it I know you are, who in their right mind would consider that drop onto concrete, I certainly have never seen the God that is Danny do anything comparable, please point me to any vids that prove me wrong, I'm gagging to see it/them.
Cheers.

The front flip of edinburgh castle in Way Back Home
Impressive as it was, the above is a big drop to flat/small transition, I have never seen Danny do anything as big.
But don't forget that you tube drop looks like it is being done on an 8" plus downhill bike, not a rigid trials bike.
not being funny but I cant get enough of watching this bloke, his style and the way these clicks are filmed just looks the dogs, think a 25 min video would be Sh&t hot 8)
another superb video... the guy is amazing...if only i had one fraction of the skill...
Cool vid but I preferred this one
Way back home is exellent
