What Moves

A few weekends ago Yosuke, Joel, Ramin and I went mountain biking in the mountains west of Redwood City. Skeggs Point. It was awesome. Some epic single track and Yosuke knows those trails inside and out...outstanding guide. He even loaned me a bike (RIP bright orange Klein -- stolen from me way back in college). It was a great time, great workout, and a fantastic outdoor activity on a flat, waveless weekend day. Good times.

But, could somebody please tell Danny MacAskill to stop following me? I mean, I just watched his video below, and...every single move he does...exact carbon copies of my moves on Sunday! It's uncanny! From the 360 flip I launched off the redwood tree at the bottom of Resolution Trail, to the 30 foot drop I bombed off that rock outcropping at Manzanita...they're all there! I give him credit for putting together an entertaining, well choreographed, very watchable video...but next time, Danny, come up with your own moves, ok?


Seriously now though -- insane video. Watch the whole thing. Unbelievable.

Nice to see him wearing a helmet. Good influence for the kids.
