General: [VIDEO] Danny MacAskill: Yellow Memories

December 6, 2016 by Andreas Waldera

Lifestyle: On the occasion of the launch of the new Magura MT7 Danny MacAskill Signature brake, there is a new video from the Scot. The clip also shows scenes from the beginning of the bike career of the exceptional talent. Somehow hardly surprising: Already at the age of 15 Danny MacAskill had a lot of style!

With the Magura MT7 Danny MacAskill Signature disc brake, things have come full circle for the Scot. As a teenager, he admired his idols who rode the trail with the Magura HS Raceline brakes. He had to save a lot for Danny's dream component HS 33, unmistakably in bright yellow - but it was a real must-have! At the time, nobody would have believed that a Magura brake would be named after him. The early driving scenes of the exceptional talent were filmed at Danny's home on the Isle of Skye. His own obstacle course was created from pallets and cable reels that he had received from local construction workers. His older brother filmed these scenes.
