Yeah he's one of the best rider out there IMO, I love the way he kinda blends Trials and BMX street riding.

Was watching a documentary with him in it the other week called Daredevils: life on the edge

Well worth a watch, It's actually really interesting and I found I could relate to a lot of the stuff they talk about in the program. I've been riding BMX for pretty much 15 years and have been riding bikes all my life.

Tell me about bloody knee injuries :cry: I tore 20% of my ACL 3 years ago so had a year off, Then I sprained it again! If I do it again I'm going to probably need surgery and it could be the end of me being able to push my riding.

This was my leg a month ago after a 540 went a bit wrong!

Is that daredevils program the one where 4 seperate groups make a film? Whatever that was called it was quality.

Danny never fails to blow my mind.

Love a bit of Jeb Corliss aswell

Nah That was concrete circus. This program goes into the psychology behind people who do extreme sports and the reasons why the people who do don't have the same level of fear and worry that others do. Also explains how we aren't actually adrenaline junkies :lol:

Note to Tom - if you havent watched concrete circus watch that aswell.

Note to Me - watch the other one

Note to Scottie - stop watching riding videos and go paint ur truck :thefinger:

P.S actually watch a MTB film called life cycles.
