Nekro Posted December 19, 2004 Share Posted December 19, 2004 This guy's crazy for real. I stopped reading/paying attention to skateboard magazines a few months after that mega-ramp stunt for completely unrelated reasons, but I have nothing but respect for someone who has his knee operated o 5 times and keeps abusing the shit out of it. Danny Way- true soldier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
