Anyone with even a passing intrest in skateboarding will have probably heard of Danny Way and Bob Burnquist.
For those of you who havent they are a couple of pro skaters who like to take things to ridiculous extremes. Theyve had abit of a friendly rivalry going for a long time and are always trying to better the other.
It all really moved up a gear after Bob Burnquist looped a full pipe for the first.
Danny Way built his mega ramp at Point X Skate Park in the desert in Southern California.
So Bob did the Loop Of Death by removing the Top section of a Full pipe!
Danny does the first MegaRamp Backflip on a skateboard!
So Bob does a front flip!
Danny then decides to ramp it up a notch by jumping the Great Wall Of China
So Bob responds by jumping off the edge of the Grand Canyon (with a parachute)
The latest is that Danny has just completed the highest bomb dive, from the topof the guitar outside the Hard Rock Las Vegas. Thats over 80feet(almost 9 stories) high for anyone who has never been there
Bob has recently pulled off the first sideways barrell roll on a skateboard but although its on his new DVD, there is no footage on youtube.com just yet
Anyway i know this has nothing to do with anything but these guys deserve to be seen by more than just skaters, simply cos of how easy they make it all look.
