"page not found. file deleted..."

I've seen this guy before. Definitely a whole 'notha level.


I know why you haven't heard of him before... he's a trials rider.


There's plenty of other vids of him out there. Just google.

jesus he realy does have talent, and i personally think its better than BMX, riding like his, because it is a really good blend of tech moves, and tricks, but also big stuff, and its obscene when he mixes all 3 into stupid lines.

Suck me SIDEWAYS that guy is good!!! lol
The only thing I dislike about urban riding like this is the complete lack of respect for pedestrians and passersby. Not so much in this video but I've seen many where the rider damn near hits someone who is just trying to walk down the sidewalk. Not cool if he bashes into someone's child or baby carriage!

Sweet riding skills though.

meh I didn't think it was that great

seen the same stuff in bmx videos 4 years ago

People might take that comment wrong, but I know what you mean. The above video was definitely A+, but the Corey Martinez video that was out 4 or 5 years ago is still my favorite, probably of all time- at least street anyway. This one would be second.

Holy Sh!t

...after the flair off the tree - the bunny hop up the stairs to nose press - G-Turn was one of the sickest things I've seen in a while. Then there's the tailwhip transfer between the 2 ledges... the MASSIVE 360 down the stairs in what looked like a subway station... riding up that parking lot gate... everything in that vid was completely awesome and full of fresh new sequences.

For my 7 year old he's a Jedi Master...
I was comedically exaggerating the scale by which one would categorize Danny's skills because he's so good at what he does he's nearly off the scale... it's a joke, you see...

:biggrin:

ANYWAY - it looks like this footage of Macaskill is really getting around the internet - just found this on a mainstream website. The non-bikers are calling it "Parkour With Bikes"...

i'm no expert but am i wrong in assuming that it would be more difficult to execute the same moves on a mountain bike versus a bmx bike?

what an insane video.
