Nice to see 'street' Danny back. The Tennis Court move wins it for me...

I like it... lots... But i prefer a bit of Wibmer.. Danny seems to lack the sparkle that Wibmer has... despite the fact he's incredibly talented.

He peaked with the Toybox one for me.

gosh. stand out for me was the Administration building bail (he came out out that so well - years of bailing practice there!) then the race back to the top for another go - that's what his vids are sometimes missing, that sense of travel and flow. It can be a bit nicer to watch than just incredibly hard move - cut - incredibly hard move.

It's the bits between the bits that can show you how good a rider he is, rather than 2 second clips of the very hardest thing he can imagine doing, which can be a bit hard to relate to, and hard to make look stylish.

Well that's something to stick on whilst on the turbo later.

Just wish I'd not read the accompanying marketing puke.

Was there over the summer- it's been a bit, err, sanitised for the film.

Watched this, then went back and watched the Inspired Bicycles video again, still an astonishing edit, not a fan of cycling videos but it's really a wonderful film (helped by a great soundtrack!)

Still works for me. He looks effortlessly smooth even though clearly it isn't

Love it!

Like how he’s included a few occasions where it didn’t quite go as well as he hoped

Enjoy it while you can peeps... once the rebrand is complete and wild cycling is all the rage, dangerous activities like this will be frowned upon!

Can't quite believe I've just watched a man ride along the top of a tennis net!
