I’ve had the good fortune of getting to meet Danny a few times.  I think what I like best about Danny is that he’s a friendly and approachable guy.  Unlike some people you meet who enjoy his level of notoriety, he’s always willing to say what’s up when you see him and BS about the sport, the culture and the lifestyle that we have all come to love so much.  Danny is also one of the most passionate people I know when it comes to wakeskating.  Often times it’s hard for me to explain how I feel when I ride a wakeskate.  I can always rely on Danny’s ‘Reason’ stories to help verbally express things that sometimes are beyond words.  I can’t tell you how many time I’ve read his column and thought to myself, “man that’s exactly what I’ve been trying to say!”  When you have someone that is able to express so well their love for something, you can be sure that level of passion will shine through in their riding, and it definitely does with Danny.  Without even seeing Danny ride you immediately know he rips just by the way he talks about riding.  When you do see him ride, you know he’s legit and he must be one of the most passionate guys on the scene when it comes to showin’ love for skate!!  Simply put, Danny is a rad guy on and off the water!
