Danimals might have gotten his nickname (and definitely his Instagram name) from those slurpable little yogurt bottles, but we’d like to believe the name came from him not being human when he straps in. Ok, bad joke. But there is nothing to joke about with Dan’s snowboarding (ok, I really have to stop now). He’s a VG veteran who’s made a name for himself starring in some of the biggest videos of the past decade. He’s a technician on the rails but, if you’re from the midwest, how can you not be?
