Dane Gets A 10, Then Packs A Closeout, 2012
There are epic Quik Pro Frances, and then there is the Quik Pro France 2012. Next to it all others pale in comparison. Partly because wildcard Dane Reynolds reached the final — the second world tour final of his career — just the season after announcing his withdrawal from full-time competition. Partly because on his way to the final he air-dropped into a cappuccino monster and burst through the froth to universal jubilation and 10-point placards raised high in the air. Partly because later in that very same heat he did a soul arch inside a giant closeout barrel, which as a Greek philosopher of not inconsiderable wisdom once established is the mark of a great hero.
