new danny macaskill video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ_IQS3VKjA

there are some holy crap moments, but for me, the location overwhelmed the riding and did not serve the intended purpose. still, damn beautiful and danny has courage to spare.

his first video is still my favorite, but i'm glad he continues to push.

Thanks, climb. Always like seeing his stuff, and what a gorgeous place.

Reminds me of this video I saw last week - pretty sick.

Thanks for sharing. The location was fantastic and I agree that it overwhelmed the riding...but he has such amazing skills. Not only can he ride, but he was climbing up mountains caring his bike

Wow, that's some crazy stuff. That front flip over the fence at the end was pretty cool.

Personally I loved the setting and don't think it detracted from the riding. This video kind of shifted into Hans Rey's style of riding.

Those knife's edge shots have a high pucker factor.

Some of the head camera shots were nerve racking as was the painful singing. I wonder how much it cost to shoot.

Hahaha that was my first thought as well. Also I bet it was a nice peaceful row till that helicopter flew by 50ft over his head

That trick where he flipped over the fence was the best I thought.

That shot was most likely taken by a drone. In the credits, I noticed mention of a drone pilot.

Good to see him back. He was hurtin' for awhile, recovering from some bang ups. Can't see how that would happen.
