Man, every video he comes out with takes it up a notch. I didn't think he'd be able to keep progressing, but I was clearly wrong. This film is beautiful, which isn't something you can say about many skills-based films. He's clearly an aesthete who cares about how his riding feels and looks. Contrast to the sort of riders that make you cringe, the gnar guys who think landing a trick is all that matters, no matter how sketchy it looks. Danny must have one helluva set of mental abilities to do what he does; you can tell he has complete confidence, and its well placed.
There's artistry to his riding, not just in his creativity, but also in the way that he links everything together in such a fluid way. It's a gift to be able to "think outside the box" and use his surroundings the way he does.
