Unreal.

He's got mad skillz

That's off the hook!!!!! Dude's got serious skills..

thats just sick !!! it was all i could to ride a freeking wheelie as a kid..lol

That is the best skill and balance I have ever seen,That is frickin good.I like the tree tricks

Sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

:yes: :D :thumbsup: :bow: :captain: :cheers: :woot: SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!

That makes me miss my bike:( :( Unreal street riding though:wow: :wow:

Outstanding video! The balance and skill are just amazing, rode a Hodaka up a tree like that once, dialed 911 after I came down. :thumbsup:

this guy made my day.i was laughing and exited watching it/fricken unreal.that dude is the baddest hands down.i could do some crazy stuff back in the day on my pk ripper and quadangle but this guy :hail:

Mad mad skills. I can only imagine how many times he's busted his butt to get this good.

Best I've ever seen on a bike, however, "Trial's" Motorcycle Riders do very similar IMPOSSIBLE tricks like that!

Not to take anything away from him at all though. Looks like Ballet on a bike.

Thanks for posting,

Ty

The trial bikes are awesome in their own right, but this is done with leg power. I can't imagine the amount of hours he has spent picking himself and that bike up, only to do it again. That is TALENT!!!! makes you look at the little obstacles in building cars a little different.

I stopped riding BMX about 8 years ago when my bike was stolen. I got to ride with some extremely talented guys, but the progression is just unreal! The level of riding now is INSANE! Respect, to him and all the others out there taking it to new levels.:hail: :bow: :thumbsup: :woot:

Danny has skill not doubt, but go back to 2006, Ryan Leech was doing that same stuff back then.

Ryan Leech

I raced & lived BMX for 10 years in the heyday of the sport & can tell you that is probably the best in the world for street riding!! Trials while it looks similar is much different. Yes there have been other great street riders and
Hans Rey comes to mind as the pioneer in the early 80's. He was on VHS before there was CD or You tube. As was posted the progression is amazing.
These guys in there mind imagine what is possible everywhere they go, they find spots riding, or in the car & they return to try stuff until they succeed.
Through failure & pain they live for it & dream it up. They visualize the tricks
get focus to see it & do it.

Huge respect for Danny's riding as that is the riding I loved to do. He is in the zone to say the least.

That was F'n KILLER!!!
Love that stuff. I was into bmx WAYYYY back when. I just bought a HARO Team Issue bike. It was a little bit of money, but it's a killer bike. Mostly street cruising and stuff like that.:thumbsup:
Hey speedshftr; do still have those bikes? Those are some killer bikes. EXPENSIVE TOO!!! They may be worth some money depending on condition and original parts.:cheers:

Man that guy is awesome! Best I have ever seen by far!!

It's funny how many of us raced BMX back in the day! I raced a GHP (Greg Hill Products) and about 10 yrs ago built a nice GT Cruiser for the fun of it...they are all sold now though.

I'd hurt myself doing that on foot... let alone a bike! :lol:

Yeah me too. Did a lot of it for Boss, and Cook Bros.

That's funny!!!:lol:

Bikes...gotta love them!!!

Bump because I LOVE bikes!!

Very cool JUSTCHILLIN!!!!:cheers:
I just ordered myself a HARO Team Issue bike. I should be getting it any day now, I hope!!?!?
You got some sick rides there!! I've never heard of the RESEARCH bike company. I wanted a SE bike, but those are some serious cash.
Remember the "old school" GT's, SKYWAY's and HARO's!? I noticed you've got a GT bike.
Have you ever gone to bmxmuseum.com or bmx-forum.com? I'm a member on both of those sites. I'm not on as much as I am here though!! lol:thumbsup:

Yes I belong to OS-bmx.com, Vintagebmx.com and bmxmuseum.com

I have been collecting since 2002. The PK is my bike from back in the day, the rest are bikes that I loved and just "had to have!!"

Maybe i'll start a BMX thread and if anyone has any old pics of their bikes or pics of jumping stuff, hitting the ramps or doing some ground tricks, they could post up and rekindle some memories!!!!

That's very cool.:cheers:
They definitely don't make'em like they used to!! :_paranoid

That kid has unbelievable skills....Never seen better!!!:hail:
