Danny Macaskill - Next Level Sep 2008


brainchild

Recommended Posts

Not enough unpulled clips, f**k-awful editing and piss-poor music choice for the TGSers, it seems.

EDIT: Oh, and it wasn't filmed through a "fisheye" lens (loose term) that cost £5 from eBay either, so they probably can't understand what they're seeing anyway.

Yeah, you see you've said trials there... Now, granted, Danny's clearly got the street skills but would he be able to handle a proper trials comp? Yes, actually I imagine he'd probably kick arse at that too. Poo.

about comp I don't think so...

it's like neil,craig,damon,staples,rowan, etc

the fact that you're an awesome free rider at trials ( mean you ride for pleasure,not in comp) does not make you a good comp rider at all...

look a james barton...he was training REALLY hard to could ride in the same league as hermance and co...(and you have already some beast comp riders:butler,savage,stiller etc)

but who cares? he is the best in his style, and that's how we love him...streety style (Y)

Staples was actually a comp rider before he started getting really creative at street. You could actually see that in his riding, completely different use of brakes for example.

Comps require high skill and part of that skill is understanding the obstacles you ride. We might mock the street riders as not having high skills on anything but simple terrain but I'm pretty sure those guys you mentioned would do much better than you think, especially someone like Rowan.

:P

shut it you slag - Im taking the uber compliment and Im running - running, running, running, far, far away....

back on the topic - watching it loads - the best thing about it is the god damn speed and confidence going on - its just the most inspirational style ever.
