When words like that are spoken by one of the greatest mountain bikers to ever live, you better get working as a filmmaker. Working on the famous Danny Daycare video certainly brought it fair share of WTF moments, but nothing beats the trailer flip. Of course, it took months of work and hundreds of tries to stomp the maneuver, but that’s just a regular day’s work for Danny.

Danny shares:
“After getting most of the film done over about 1,5 years, it was still really something missing. I kind of had in the back of my mind that it’d be pretty cool to try to go upside down with the trailer in the back. That started a six-month mission: from trying to learn it on a foam pit, then taking it to an airbag and then trying to find a location all the way to making it all work together.”
