Well he didn't really spill any beans, because we already got the footage [VIDEO] of Danny doing the 25.5ft air on that ramp. Danny Way has been teasing a video part for many years now, so I'm not holding my breath anymore. It's amazing that Hoffman can still hit a ramp like that (or that's he even alive) after the amount of injuries and concussions he's had.

methods are a tweak originating from snowboarding to add "extra" hight to airs. you do this by grabbing melong (front hand on heel edge) and pull the board back and up. your pretty much scorpioning yourself to get your feet out of the way. if you doing this as an air, your belt buckle should theoretically be the lowest point to the ground. good for making airs look extra big. take the snowboarder stuff with salt, idk if it's real or not. method air [VIDEO]
