Long distance talk ain't cheap.
Danny is from England, was pro for G & S, moved to Texas for a spell, and then moved back to England. He also rode for Deathbox, the original version of Flip. Danny is apparently a drummer who played with the Anti Nowhere League in the 1990s. His first pro model for G & S featured a graphic of him talking on the phone from Texas to the UK. He racked up an enormous long distance phone bill on the company's dime and they took some of his board royalties to cover the cost. Fortunately the decks sold like hotcakes and Danny did fine for himself in the end.

Google was borderline useless for finding info on Danny. Did he have a few tricks in Speed Freaks?

Great news. Just sent a book I made up of pictures of Danny I took in Farnborough back in '83 / 84 to FAR skateshop. Hope you get it and hope you like it. Amazing to watch Danny skate at Farnborough and later at the Adventure Sports Show at Ally Palace.
Hope you like the book.
