P-O-D definatly, thats awesome.
I hate when people say POD...
But this is an AMAZING picture! How do you get enough speed and hop to do a tail whip off a 2" Beam!!!

This POD is really spooky in a way.
There is like, no shadows anywhere.
Things look really textured or shaped too.. I can't explain it.
Does anyone sorta see what I mean?
I really LOVE whatever he's done - awesome picture!

About the shadow/texture stuff schwarzer said: it's mostly from the heavily clouded skies, and it's also a pretty low saturation/contrast image. The style of photography definitely suits the pic.
edit: also, when compared to the other shots that weren't retouched like this one, the difference is huge. Props on the editing too
I just realized this is photoshopped, no spokes, no shadows and the sky is conveniently one color..good job though...
I Think you sir are an R-Tard... Its not photoshopped. Sure you cant see the Spokes... But that doesn't mean anything. Using different filters when using the art of Photography makes and changes different things that you don't notice. If i were using My Nikon D200 with the proper setting i could make a picture look exactly like this. Also when a rim is spinning do you see each spoke? You sure as hell don't! Don't say what you don't know and learn a thing or two before you reply with such a stupid answer.
Good day Sir.
Good day Sir.
I believe it when I see the vid. Oh and do you have a life? you seem like you have a bit too much time on your hands if you have time to write a letter about a photoshopped pic
what the hell, how can people be this good, Tail whip is one thing but jumping of that thing is a another level of crazy
This is what happens when you dont manage to ride a skinny like that http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/1832909/
this is probably one of the sickest things ive ever seen. this is better than a 1000foot drop in my books. absolutely awesome man!!

that no parking sign is there for a reason, and it's not to be ridden off. Next time ride more sensibly

i am truly impressed. to do it on a bmx is one thing but on a 26r is something else. you have my prob's and my vote for pod...
im jw. is this photoshopped? like did you have a ramp b4 when you actually did the trick? and then took it out and put that sign in?
either way sick pic!! CRAZYYY skills props

IT IS PHOTOSHOPPED!!! This guy hasn't got spokes! Besides, make it bigger and look carefully at the details!
But, of course it is a good photo for pod

LOL, the background looks soo Emo, its like Vampire town or something! But really nice trick! You got skills man! Props. 
For all you doubters, this photo is not fake. I photographed him hitting this thing about 10 times. The reason you can't see his spokes is because of the bleach bypass photo filter. It reduces color and washes out the whites in the photo, so the spokes just blended with the sky. Check out the Nemesis project blog, there are more pics of him attempting the skinny.
Well according to the other pictures, I guess I was wrong! Big respect then, could you tell us if he did land it?
There is a link in the middle of the comments to one of his bails - it's real, his nuts - maybe not any more
i haven't commented on a pod in a while but this one is sick, i can't even imagine jumping off that thing more less taiwhipping it!!!!
Best POD in ages, this guy is seriously stepping it up! Do it again, on video! It'll be VOD for sure!!! Gnarly

This picture looks this way because he turned up the contrast and brightness a bit makes colors look more bold and sharp

I hate to let you all know but he did not land that. the bike is too high. I guarantee
he landed beside the bike.
he landed beside the bike.
read the other posts before you talk about what is fake, and what you cant see. it's less annoying that way.
im so sick of reading coments on pods and most of them are cumming from people who are having ago at other people for making a piont, "freeriderrr4852 " left a comment on something that he thought about the photo but also said he liked it and most of you give him crap and negative props, wats the point, and if anyone leeves a coment and gets neg props and crap thrown at them they wudner y,, give me neg props if ya want, just thought i would let it out and make my own point.
maby should say something bwt the photo,
its great, deserves POD, more of that and it will all be good

I think I saw another attempt of this jump and the guy landed on his balls.
A woman was watching it and she said something like "Long way to go my son"

how the hell is it possible to tailwhip off of a 1"*4" thats just friggen impossible this guy has main skills and the photographer has prime timing props to both
OK, for those who love the shot, thanks! For all you NON-BELIEVERS who think this is fake, get it through your head: THIS SHOT IS REAL. Here's the three shots I took on this sequence:

Hopefully that puts it to rest...just you can't imagine doing it doesn't mean it's fake!

this guy is mad good. I'm sitting in the building to the right and i just saw this. Ive seen him riding around and he is definitely the best on campus. Props man and sick shot for sure
[Reply]
go into his profile and you will see all the times he bailed and hurt himself before completing the jump.... douche
[Reply]
hate to break it to you guys he probly didnt land the whip like that look where the bike is and where he is..
[Reply]
altho the photo quality is nice, the tailwhip looks clearly out of control and highly doubtful that it was landed.
Yeah, the guy has no spokes in his wheels because the editor cloned in the sky from the background. Good job none the less.
stunning skills!
