Name: Danny / Skeletal Dan / The Crow / Asda
Age: 21
Location: Wallasey, my bedroom.
Bike Setup: No pegs, no brakes, everything overly tight, lots of psi in me tires.
Favourite spot in Liverpool:I really cant think so its deffo not but i like that kinda big 5 set down the side of some warehouse buildings just next to Toys r us.. With a bit of wood up the stairs it makes a real good fly out. If theres no wood though, theres a really cool fly out over the road which is perfect. apart from addi nearly broke his skull on the sketchy run up to it. That was just before Tank burst out off his shorts on the way to the echo ledges. Funny day.
Favourite out of town spot: I have a big soft spot for Woodside and the Civi.
Favourite city to ride aside from Liverpool: I love the asthetic of Barcelona but Cologne for me was just amazing. If i had to go back to one or the other just for the sake of riding it would be cologne.
One city you want to ride: America is an obvious choice but maybe Japan would be cool... Wherever, as long as theres fun people its what you make of it really.
Least shit artificial stunt premises: The 'shire aka Dev green. Best skatepark ever.
One trick you do alot: i like doing 360s out of stuff. thats pretty much all i can do.
Top 3 BMX videos: top 300 wouldnt be enough. for now ill just say Nowhere Fast, Animal(s), Criminal Mischeif
Top 3 BMX video sections: Van Homan Criminal Mischeif. Vinnie Sammon - Can i eat. Dave Young - nowhere fast. I could name 30 but they were the first few vids I had seen so they stick out... Oh and Stricker in Please Kill Me.
Top 3 music: bands or genre? well today ive listened to DS-13. The Replacements. Dropdead. But this can change daily and depending on mood.
Top 3 B-Team riders: I like everyone for different reasons i could never pick a favourite!
Top 3 UK riders: Chris Mainprize aka Mainy of fashion fame ( best barspin and a cracking blogger http://melonthree.blogspot.com/) thats it.
Top 3 Worldwide riders: Colt Fake, Sean burns and chester blacksmith interest me. Not saying they are typicaly the best just fun to watch.
Favourite clip on the B-Team DVD: Ryan 360ing the civi gap to perfection. Brilliant filming from me aswell!
One person who needs to come out riding more: Tank and Ryan. But realisticly probably me.
One trick you never need to see again: Anything Dakota roach does never needs to be seen anyone.
One BMX trend that does your head in: Im not really bothered by things like that. Its kinda middle of the road but if someones happy doing something and it dosnt affect me then who am i to judge.
One difference between a real street rider and a fake: whether or not they were riding street 2 years ago... and if you owned a rampworks membership theres no arguing really is there?
One rider that does your head in: Miles Roogish. Maybe its not so much his fault because all hes doing is making videos of him and his friends which is cool i can dig that, but they are mediocre at best and every time i see the words "Tuesdays with Miles" on the come up i want to physicaly fight my computer screen.
One crap BMX video off the top of your head: Brighton Aint Ready... the name and the whole concept of the video is enough to make me hate it. (Nicky Croft is brill though)
Something that's boss: Playing football is fun.
Something that's shit: cold toes and hands when your trying to ride. Thats enough to make me wanna go home.
One reason street riding is better than anything else: Its free, theres plenty of spots and its always nice to be outside.
Sign off: 2010 come back.
