Daniel Dhers nominated for Laureus World Sports Award....

Daniel informed me the other day he was nominated and we couldn't be more stoked for him.  The ceremony will be held in Russia in Feb and Daniel is stoked! Here's alittle info about the award I snatched from fatbmx.com

"After his stellar year in 2007, including winning both the X Games and AST Cup in BMX Park, Daniel Dhers has been honored with a nomination as the Laureus World Action Sportsperson of the Year. This is a very prestigious award - the Patron of Laureus is Nelson Mandela and the winners are selected by a jury including sport superstars from Tony Hawk to Dan Marino. Other nominees in the action sports category include Shaun White, Ryan Sheckler and Mick Fanning."

December 31, 2007, are the premier honours in the international sporting calendar. The winners, as voted by the Laureus World Sports Academy, the ultimate sports jury, made up of 43 of the greatest sportsmen and sportswomen of all time, will be unveiled during a televised Awards Ceremony staged in the Mariinsky Concert Hall in St. Petersburg, Russia on February 18. 2008.

Congrats Daniel...you deserve it!
