30 Minutes to Danny Hickerson

Leave a Comment

We’re not sure exactly how long this footage has been online, but according to Vimeo Isaac French uploaded this short but sweet video of Danny Hickerson 5 years ago. We’re not sure if it was locked up or just not too many people stumbled across it because it only has 1,500 views as we post this. The reason we say not too many people is because with Danny’s riding, this should have a ton more views than it does. Hit play for a video that was filmed during a backyard ramp session down in Texas. Danny cooks up some crazy lip tricks, sends some flips and brings some buttery smooth hang fives to the table. We’re huge fans of Danny’s riding, unfortunately back problems and more sidelined him after years of crushing it. But, we’ll take what we can these days and this is definitely rad as hell. Enjoy!

Terrible One – Complete Barcode eBay Auction

barcode_ebay_auction_600x

Terrible One has an awesome AUCTION up with 100% of the proceeds going to help Danny Hickerson out with his medical bills! This is a one of a kind bike that was donated to T1 to help Danny. Get your hands on a DIALED bike and help the guy out! CLICK HERE for the eBay page and find out more below!

“The story of this Barcode is so very inspirational and an example of true kindness. Glenn Thomas had built himself his dream bike. He spent a good while collecting everything to make this bike exactly what he wanted personally. When he heard about Danny Hickerson’s accident, he wanted to help. So he contacted me with a most gracious offer. He wanted to send us his prize bike for us to auction off, and put the money collected from it towards Danny’s lingering doctor bills. Yeah, truly amazing! It took us a little to have this all come together, but the day is finally here. I hope y’all dig this amazing build and know that you will be bidding for the best of causes. Glenn, we can’t thank you enough! Cheers!” – Joe Rich

Terrible One – Danny Hickerson Benefit Auction

danny_ebay_flyer_600x

Terrible One is auctioning off a very rare set of titanium pegs to help out Danny Hickerson with some medical bills! This might seem a little crazy, but it’s for a good cause and I swear these pegs will spark like mad if you actually run them! Hit up the Ebay Auction before the 21st and get in on this!

“We are auctioning this one-of-a-kind pair off on eBay, and all the money will go towards Danny Hickerson’s medical bills. Even though he had medical insurance, he was still left with a lot of bills after his back injury last year.

Please note: these have been used! They were ridden for a little bit and there’s grind marks over a lot of the sleeves and tips, but since it’s for a good cause and since these are the only pair of ti T-1 pegs that exist, we thought it’d be worth trying to raise some money for Danny by auctioning them off. This will mark the first of a few auctions we will be doing for him.

If you know anyone who might be interested in these, we’d appreciate it if you could spread the word. Thanks!
