POD Deemax rulez!!!.........
RAD wow hes close 2 the camera i love that pic
awesome pic!!! could be pod
pod 100 %..all the wayy..sweet pic
POD, this is an awesome photo.
POD jak jasna cholera.pikny pikczer
POD, man that is sweet, mabye get a new helmet, but its still wicked sweet
You're right ugly helmet, but still he is a damn good rider ... This is one of the few pictures where he actually looks kind of cool.
if anyone says anything gay about this picture,or that it shouldnt b POD because hes not dropping 300 ft or doing a triple backflip, i will find you. and i will kill you.
hey now, let's not do anything rash.
the helmet is gay and you have an attitude problem...if i ever see you riding around town i'm going to kick you right in the balls, i'm not even going to warn you! or if i ever see you skiing or boarding on the mountain i'm going to stab you with my poles right through your heart! (be warned i know ninja moves!)
hey i wanna go fast, did you not just hear me?? i will kill you, the hunt is on
should not be pod he's not jumping off a 300ft cliff no way not pod
Since hes not dropping off a 300ft clif or doing a triwhip it should be POD. And your really gay. Like your gay to the tenth degree. And you wont beable to catch me im too fast for you. Plus your gay.
oh yea, and sick picture man
just kidding accualy pretty sweet photo but if u wanna see an evan closer up on go to www.pinkbike.com/photo/1056864/ but anyways swweet pic
I like the comment above me
ride_on I like your first comment
Damn.. That's so intensed! Love it!
i absolutely love the shots in this guy's album. it may be one the smallest on pinkbike, but id have to say its one the best IMO. i love how his shots capture the speed and focus of the rider. I WANT MORE!!!. and keep up the good PODs. theres been alot of good ones lately
Wicked shot and kick ass riding, don't know about anyone else, I'm sick of seeing Dee Max everywhere, even if they are kick ass hoops.
FUCCJ YA 18TH COMMENT ILOVE IT MY BEST EVER COMMENT MAKE SURE TO CHECK OUT MY ALBUM IT OWNS THIS SHITTY POD THAT IS LIKE THE SAME AS POD LIKE 2 DAYS AGO. BUT ANYWAYS 17TH 17th 18th 18th 18th i own i wanna get !(th comment too woooooot wooot
how can you not love a f*cking random comment like this 
Great photo! POD for sure.
nice man im diggin the helmet
Very good shot. Great motion blur in the background and a pretty solid crisp freeze on the rider. The closeness of the wheel makes it even better. The helmet and the goggles make him look like a pilot of a jet fighter...and he looks like he's moving that fast too. nice stuff.
i like the shot but there are a couple things i don't really dig about it 1: the most exposed part of the shot where your eye is drawn to is not the focal point, so i was slightly dissapointed by the whole thing, but if you had focused on the tire the whole shot would be a lot less cool
so next time maybe try for universal lighting so that your picture is better ballanced and more whole
i like it and it has potential, maybe sometime try a retake working on the lighting

Nice photo. props to the rider and photographer. Weird jersey though. It looks like some kind of state champ jersey or something. What does it say on the jersey?
now this pic is awsum the blur background makes the pic look even better keep ridin man.
Yeah nice shot but there is a couple things I really don't like : I like the angle and the speed effect but the gear and the helmet of the rider are f*cking ugly... And too much flash in the front part of the bike and in the head of the rider... But still sweet picture you are a very good photographer mate! Keep learning...
It really doesn't matter how much people like the helmet or not, cause truth is, as long as it does its job (protect your head), it shouldn't be a problem. This is a nice picture that deserved to be POD, and at least the get to see something different than a table top
yeh, who cares about mountain fashion. he looks like a storm trooper shreddin' down the mountain.
amazing pic, great pod
very nice pic..........how did you got it..??
that is i sick pic i love it but the rider has got to get a helmet, that ons gay...TLD all the way!
looks like a storm trooper helmet...no visor...Dave Mirra style
How did you get that angle? that's insane, i love the effect of motion in the pic...sweet...just sweet lol
Thats a sweet shot. How did you get the angle. You either had to be really close up or you have a great camera. Whatever it is, it's a POD well deserved.
Way to blind the crap out of him with your flash. See that white spot on his goggles? RIGHT IN HIS EYES! Haha just kidding man. Awesome picture.
Not to be a total dick but is it just me or does the advertisement/sponsor on his jersey look like it's been touched up (yes i mean photoshopped) to make it clear? i looks like the lines are blurred at the bottom and the side and then gets crystal clear by the name...look by his armpit and the blue doesn't match or the red by the square...also the lines go from being blurred to very straight and clear to the point it looks a little weird...am i seeing shit or what? i gotta get off graveyard shifts....
ill say totaly wierd. maybe photoshoped (im gona get abused so bad for sayin that)
No photoshopping has been done what so ever to this shot, besides unsharp mask (to the whole image) and image size ...
good enough for me....it is a definitely a sweet shot and i wasn't meaning to take away from it, it just looked a little weird to me that's all...i love the angle and yeah you do have some other great pics in your albumn, it'll just be a matter of time before another one is pod...
esa foto esta de pelicula es muy bueno felicidades...
i bechu the camera man got run over right after the pic was taken
dude, some of us ride sooo fast that your little peak simply blows clean off ... anyways, peaks are on mountains, not helms. ride.
Way, Kinky for the win... haha
Looking at this picture makes me dizzy.
WIERD AND COOL? INTERESTING

I think his helmet looks stormtrooper style, too, very cool. the jersey's pretty gay, but it's still a good shot. maybe there wouldn't be so much yakking about his gear if it wasn't the only thing in focus in the shot - still conveys speed though
awesome foto! really good photograph that took that photo! btw helmet like in star wars hehe
oakley logo =)
same shit different day
Wow thats a really cool picture. I really like it! Props to whoever took it!
im loving the mortercycle hemete
someone pull my finger?
which one u want pulling
sweet pic, does frans actually end up hitting you or not. pod
No he didn't hit me, but it was close ...
Sweeeeet, awesome, great etc... P O D!!!
R.I.P dear cameraman, who was blown and owned so god damn f*ckin hard by this rider, that his mother was unable to identify his body... AWESOME SHOT!!
that is insaaaaaaanellly cooool!!!!!!!
pod has been realy good latley
ugly helmet but extremely nice pic! Are rocks!
nice! looks so fast!$
the best dh ridin ever ..
thats a sick picture and that helmet
Sweeet Pic Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IWANNAGO FAST IS A RETARD!!
thanks, i love you too...
fantastic shot!!!!!!!!!!
i think thats the first time that only 2 ppl have left stupid comments lol///sikk photo man..mad props to the photographer
props to krabiker, rider83 and oceen246 for offering advice and stuff like that, and dont give riper51 negative props, he just wants them cuz its like a contest ppl have, like " this is f*ckin photoshopped" and stuff like that. no offence, but i dont really like that halmet much, angle is awsome, but its blury props to u anyway tho 4 getting pod. dee max and world cups rock
Great action shot. However, the picture isn't properly framed. About a 3rd of the rear wheel is out of the shot. That's the only thing I'd change. Oh, and I'm not saying it's not POD worthy.
talk about leaning it over eh? that so sic, try not to get clipped by his tire!
The Pic is sweet, and lay off about the visor. Sure it looks gay, but did anyone ever stop to think that maybe it got trashed in an accident and he didn't want to buy a new helmet?
wo that would suck if mr camera man was ne closer. ne ways sick pic dude u must be booking it down that hill.
it kind looks ike he has clip ins
great action, great photography. Keep it up.
f*cking tight ass picture and nice star wars clone helmet
sweet pick man but not quite pod
gotta love deemax mmmmmmmm
awesome riding and nice shot! but a helmet with no visor and a biker wearing a skinsuit grades every picture down to absolute zero...
