Hi Danny! I have been obsessively watching your video for years and am always impressed with your outside-the-box thinking when it comes to new stunts. I loved Wee Day Out, particularly your slide on the log. Coincidentally I happen to also ride a Santa Cruz and also happen to have just started a company with my first product being a bottom bracket guard/chain guide designed specifically for Santa Cruz bikes with VPP suspension and single chain rings. It would have been perfect for that slide.

Can I send you a prototype? I can think of no greater honor as a professional engineer and mountain biker than knowing my favorite athlete gave my idea a shot! Thanks!

I know! I mean what are the chances that my favorite rider ever starts riding the same make bike, that I have been developing a guard designed specifically for purposeful bashing on said bike, that Danny slides on that specific part of the bike with no guard in his new video, that I see his AMA randomly when it started, and that he is up for trying it? When I saw Wee Day Out last night and saw that slide on the log I turned to my wife and said, "I wonder if I can get him my guard somehow?" Too perfect. Mind. Blown.

A few for sure. I literally finished the gcode for machining this weekend so I have some alpha testing to do before I have the prototype up to par. I'll let you know when I have it ready. It's good to see at least 2 people other than myself are interested! One of which being Danny freakin MacAskill! Where do you ride? At some point I'm going to need to hire more Engineers...

Nice! I'll keep you in mind while I'm working on these here in the woods of Maryland.
