A brand new movie with Danny MacAskill - this time he uses the deserted town of Epecuén, Argentina as his backdrop.

Pretty awesome.

But He is considered the best. And He's British. Hate to compete against him.

Just a cool note. Danny Macaskill did all the Trial stunts performed in Premium Rush for Joseph levoite(sp?) In Premium Rush and All the Volkswagen Commercials. He's kind of the go to guy in Hollywood bike stunts. For Trail style riding.

Is that what it's called? Trial Style?

I love watching kids do Trials bike riding. A skill I could not and will never perfect but is truly fascinating.

Kind of cool to see Freestyle Trial riding I guess is what that video is. Not sure if this is a hybrid of the two skills and how long this has been going on.

Its called Observed Trials. Motocross Trials was first. Trials was inspired from motocross trials riders. It was a Moto trials rider in the late 80's who started it. The modern style like danny often uses is a mix of observed trials ( balancing on rails, J-hopping from item to item) and a Mix of BMX Street riding ( flips, wall rides, bar Spins, tail whips)

Man, I would love to do that for a living. Or just have the skill to do that in my spare time.

Sigh.

Back to work. Type type type...

That part on the tennis court net starting around the 2:40 mark of that video is nuts. Like it doesn’t even seem real. I’m glad he includes parts where he bails, so we know he’s human.

Danny Mac is an absolute wizard. Every time I watch one of his videos it’s like “how is that even possible…”
