OMFG!!!!! its like a godsend!!!!:O WOW!!!
that should be POD! thats sweet, who cares if its fake! well...the guys at PB might, so somebody go there and ride!
aaustin,he luvky to get that high , he only started up the hill as far as he could walk up it, so he wouldnt get much speed...
would be cool, but i think its fake. look at the quality of the rider, and the quality of the church, their different, and the rider looks out of scale.
wow that is a load. yes crappy Photoshop is easy hence this picture and all the people who post photos with a description saying "sweet Photoshop" when they have just added an auto filter.hardly ever is any decent photoshop posted on Pinkbike its more than just using the wand cutting stuff out and putting it on something els.
It looks fake, unless hes doing a 360 table and the photographer just happened to snap the pic right when he was faceing frontwards!

How could you just if its real by how big the rider is if there nothing to compare the rider with? Theres no doors, theres no other people, theres no way. I think its fake because of a comment mentioned earlier, the focus on the rider and the focus on the church are completly different.
yeah but the rider is moving and the church isn't right, havn't some of your digi shots ever came out like this before?

i really dont care if its fake or not, but just to give my point: those tiles are layered slate, they'd just break/fall loose when he landed ANY amount of air onto them, which he must have done from pumping up and down if he was going to air that big as it would be impossible to climb/drop in on that opposing side roof to the one he is airing. and as there is no damage whatsoever to the roof, Il let you all make an educated descition.
Besides the point Im making, this really is a very good pic, real or not, i really dont care because you know that aaron chase or someone will do this in some crazy segment on some crazy video set in china etc sooner or later. something to aspire towards...

Lescart: if you mean haloing as in the fuzzyness round the rider then i think its real cos if you look at the rest of the picture most of it has haloing

yeah ithink it is photoshop i think the rider is cam zink and that roof is so fake,but still really cool and good photoshop
i'd definetly say it's real. You can see the spokes on the wheel, and you say the rider's not the same quality as the church, but if you follow along the edge of the roof of the church where it meets the sky it's the same quality as the biker. He also seems in scale, when you consider how far away he is, and the fact that the roof, i imagine, is pretty damn big

does anyone else see the square around the rider? the giant quarter is also fake its ridiculously huge, even for a church. the middle spine might be real. but the rest is fake.
im trying to find the video but i cant seem to find it but i do remember seeing something similar if not the samee as this
i saved it and opened it in photoshop and it looks very real the rider is exactly the same pixelated image like there is no contrast between the rider and the image

photoshop,. but its bomb, would love to see ppl ride it 
if that was my house id chuck some plywood over the shingles, get a ladder and some walls, and there, i have a skatepark on my roof

the church itself is real but the person and the huge-ass quarterpipe to the left is definetely fake... you can tell that the pixels aren't consistent from both sides of the roof...
w8 now lokking at it agin the tall quarter is fake but the rider has to be real
look at the the patern of the shingls theey change and are weird near the top

if you look closely, you can see the little square around the guy, and he's too small for the picture

It's fake, save the picture and take it to adobe photoshop. Zoom 2x and you can see where the grains go from the original church picture to the cut off photo of the rider. Who ever photoshopped this did an amazing job though.
at first i thought fake cos of the posistion of the rider but then i realised hes airing it as a quarter....and i think its real cos if yo ulook at the light reflecting of the rim and the light on the church its all coming from the same place, the riders probably pixelated cos of him moving
but it still could be fake.......
but it still could be fake.......

the riders bodyand face look blurred, but the rest of the church is vlear. fake. but i will go and do it when i go on my gap year next year.
