Phatmike Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Really enjoyable vid that - what an awesome location! Good to see some massive grins and spins, the 3-tap up those steps was monstrous.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0zzy Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 my favorite of his vids alot more trialsy imo! id love to see how hed fare up to see some natural. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr ailsbury Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 I know he's pretty much having his video's professionally made for him now but if everyone put a bit more effort into their videos and how they edit them instead of arsing around then it wouldn't matter what sort of style you've got, it would make trials a lot more popular and make people take us as seriously as they take Danny. Great video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hitcher Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Loved it, though I admit sometimes I can get a bit bored of "Danny Mac Style street" riding, just as I can with TGS, natural and everything else. But... its the fact that each time I see a video there's something new or a move that makes me go "shit, that's nuts" plus with great editing it makes the video enjoyable to watch and makes me want to go out ride and try something other than side hopping a wall or dropping a nice gap. f**k the Haters, Trials is becoming way to 'scene' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 It's the same as any top of the tree rider - they'll have a few things that become the staple basis of their riding. Sure it's not for everyone, but dear god TOBY-E there's not enjoying a video and then there's simply being a thundercunt. I liked the video very muchly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mtchell Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Nice Video , nice relaxed feel to it. Well Flirting aside , I think Dannys doing us all a favour at the end of the day in the sense that, he's representing and bigging up trials and riding as a sport. Along with many other great riders, Dannys know for what he does, damon W is known for what he does,I,ll watch Danny M if want to see 180s/360 nose wheelies and I,ll watch Damon w if I want to see Big gaps and Sidehops and so on, Its immature argueing about which discipline is better they all take hard work and effort to achieve.

Rusevelt Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Well its good to here that DMC is back in the saddle after a long stint through injury, so i wasn't expecting him to anything ground-breaking other than to see he hasn't lost any of his form. Would love to see dmc nailing a Decade if it is possible to do on big wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 exept every danny mac wannabe who owns an inspired + every standard bmxer. he only gets recognition because hes got bigger wheels a magura, and a little help from some decent editing. Bearing in mind it was a BMXer who edited it, surely the other videos Dave Sowerby's edited would have made those BMXers who are 'standard' and the same level as Danny 'get recognition' as well? Oh no, wait, that's because he's significantly better than anyone else out there, and is doing his own thing. Equally, bear in mind that in the past 12 months Danny's only been able to ride for about half of that, so it's got to be pretty hard coming up with something new. It's pretty much a snapshot of his riding at the time, so it'd be pretty hard to suddenly batter out loads of other moves. If someone flew you out to Chamonix to try and film you for a video, you'd also be more inclined to go for shit you knew you could do so you could get the footage in the bag, rather than trying something new you're not really sure of and potentially hurting yourself and not getting the clips in the process. In your list of stuff he does, you also missed out actual tailwhips (rather than footjam whips) and flairs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayshell Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 danny mac can do a lot more than in his videos though... he does those tricks the most probably because he likes them the most. If you watch his older videos he can do half a billion other things. I guess he just assumes those are his best tricks. A video isn't about showing every possible thing you can do always. His tiretaps are my favourite trick personally and I don't mind watching like 20 of them in a video part. All riders do their favourite tricks mainly. Bmxers are all wallride, railhop, barspin. Trials riders are hook, gap drop, side hop. etc... but I am sure most trials riders can do like 180 gaps and stuff but just don't put it in their vids. In your list of stuff he does, you also missed out actual tailwhips (rather than footjam whips) and flairs and hooks, nosepick 180s, gaps, huge bunny hops, front flips, back flips, wallrides, manuels, backwards manuels, g-turns, fufanus, and not to mention the 3000 different ways of combining those tricks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 and hooks, nosepick 180s, gaps, huge bunny hops, front flips, back flips, wallrides, manuels, backwards manuels, g-turns, fufanus, and not to mention the 3000 different ways of combining those tricks SIDEHOPS > all those moves !!

Ash-Kennard Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 nose wheelies, that tailwhip thing, and 180s/360s its getting as bad as tgs. try something new ffs LOL. i do get where you are coming from, his recent videos have been pretty repetitive skill wise, but you have to appreciate how he makes them all flow together and his older videos show you hes not just whip man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewoomaster Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Nice to see his back on his bike, very nice vid dude's got mega skillz!!! All you guys that are/were moaning same old stuff etc... You chattin shite boys Its just sad how you can slag off someone who loves riding and is mint at it. I think you got a touch of the little green eye monster. Just watch the vid and hope that one day your be half as good.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikee Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Super sweet video. Even though It was full of amazing riding, it wasn't quite as jaw dropping as the April one which is understandable with him making adverts and being injured cutting down his learning new stuff time. Was abit more trialsy too which was good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr kenny Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Hey everyone, This was filmed mid summer 09 this is not Danny's riding as it would be today, Danny has been injoured since october and still isn't back at it full tilt. This is a section from a film called perfect moment, time scale wise i would say this was filmed between THAT film and the S1 jobs advert. Super smooth and the lines he finds are just awesome.
