00:16California's amazing as bike riders it's definitely growing up being one of the
00:21spots that you always want to come to you want to ride in you want to do stuff in
00:25California I mean it's iconic in all the films Hollywood you've got all these key areas you
00:31know you feel like you've seen it in every film out there a really interesting place to wander
00:36around it's really sort of vibrant and colorful it's one of the most beautiful places on earth
00:40that I've ever been to it's the place where dreams come true growing up California is one of those
00:46places that you always see in all the films especially been into BMX it's the dream place
00:51to go I didn't have that and that's not no I never I've never had a I've actually never had

02:52let's go
02:53good Job
03:29what are you up to dave painting
03:34it's all about loading the roller up nice even rolls beautiful like that yeah
03:41how would you describe dave's role on the project i'd say he's called he's a jack of all trades
03:48master of all
03:53dave his eyeballs are pretty much burning in my forehead there like making sure i say the right
03:57thing dave maxson's another one of my best friends amazing photographer he can just work on anything
04:05really and just a perfect person to have on a project like this so these will go on either end
04:10of the net so danny can pop up get lined up and hopefully scoot along getting the right tension
04:17the nets proved quite hard i think now though we've got it dialed the boys have killed it
04:22made some nice benches too nice green ones
04:29word on the street is you're too scared to move it
04:33i am too scared to move it because i know i know how long these things take
04:37we're here for six weeks you can't wear yourself out and do all the mommy shots straight in one go
04:43so as i get older i get more and more sensible i used to do this over do you work
04:48with danny
04:49yeah i'd run 300 times backwards and forwards and end up either having the nervous breakdown
04:55broken back
04:59sore arms appendix exploding something will happen because i've
05:04tried to do something over and over too many times
05:18confident i wouldn't say so the warehouse didn't exactly instill confidence in my
05:24abilities it probably took me
05:28300 tries to get across it's not actually the balance that's the main issue with this
05:33mainly the way that the tennis net moves on the cable
05:36after getting hurt the first time around when they tried this in 2017
05:40it was all about sitting down with danny and thinking about how can we maximize the chance of
05:47success and one of the things that came up was like an indoor riding space now that we know the
05:53locations you know now you can actually take some measurements and take it home and maybe
05:57practice with those things red bull very kindly got me a warehouse in inverness
06:02where i've been living so i had four months in this warehouse but i was able to build
06:08replicas of some of the spots that was hoping to clear
06:19it was cool kind of be able to get the brain
06:23into gear before sorry i'm saying that i'm saying that and it's just the training didn't work at all
06:29let's face it let's face it let's let's face it no i've had an absolute nightmare here
06:37i thought i felt like that every time i've been to the new place i'm like
06:41i should i'm sure i practiced this but it still doesn't really prepare you for actually doing in real
06:54life
06:55it was just a straight cable be terrifying to ride but i'd have much kind of cleaner line to be
07:01able to
07:01follow where's the good tennis net twist which then pulls my tires off the side and usually about
07:07three quarters off the way along so it's hard to then get extreme in your balance you know it's hard
07:12put your legs out when you think that your tires are going to slip off without you feeling they're
07:16going to slip off so all in all i've set myself up a real challenge it'd be quite nice just
07:23to get
07:23across it though and just see do you know how many goals have been so far 30 30 exactly yeah
07:31and you
07:31have to guess 100 so the only way he can win is if it's true so my expectations of watching
07:36danny film
07:37these tricks was that it was going to take a week tops i wasn't appreciative of the amount of work
07:43that goes into it for instance when i was asked on the first day of the job how many attempts
07:49i thought
07:49it would take danny to ride across the tennis net i naively said three and that gave everybody a
07:56really good laugh i think three i'm confident he's very handsome i think three is is what it's going to
08:02take three attempts yeah you can definitely tell this is the first time yeah wow so i'm fairly happy
08:12with the first few goes took a while to set up today and we've only got till a certain time
08:16um so we've
08:17got to give up today and then uh come back another time
08:30american diet continues i got a bacon cheese and egg with cream cheese bagel
