Really nice photo! The table is sick and the colours are awesome! Bit a of a stupid place to put the watermark though isnt it? It distracts too much from the trick.

Oh wow... I'm impressed that you've managed to incorporate the watermark without ruining the picture too. Good job.
its not DH you dummy. It's someone hitting a dirt kicker. Someone please get this fellow the completely idiots guide to bicycling.

Now this is what I like to see, the variety of colours, the dust behind the rider, the pure simplicity of the picture, how the ride makes it look so effortless. truely amazing, nice opne Pinkbike! One bad thing though, the damned watermark right in the middle.
can someone explain to me why this kid has neg props? seems as though everyone is getting negative props for legit comments these days.
Great shot, abolutly love it. the water mark underneath the rider in the dust cloud ruins it for me though, since that's the area our attention is drawn to, due to the rider.
Beautiful Shot, more than worthy of POD, maybe even photo of the month, but we dont have that

Sick POD, looks just like the main jump in the Summer section with Matt Hunter in Seasons. Great shot!
simply awesome photo. and for that other british comment sayin not another dh pod and saying sh*t about the canadians i think he should shut the hell up.

mint pic nd isnt the whole point of a watermark from the photographer on pictures they put on the internet so that people cant rob the picture? so its in the right place in the middle?
No offence intended but why do our Polish bredrin always feel the need to post links to their own pics in other peoples PODs? It's happened on almost every POD lately.
Stop it - It's annoying! If the pics are that good then they will get the attention they deserve without the need to spam them!

sssssssooooooooooooooooooo sick mmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaannnnnn aaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwsssssssssooooooommmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeee pics
this is an awesome POD but, wasnt the pod a few days ago just like this? anyways ,awesome pic,props!
Great photo, but terrible watermark placement. There shouldn't even be a watermark (as per pinkbike's POD submission rules). BUT, if you're going to put one, at least hide it in the corner or something, don't make it right at the focal point of the picture. It makes it much worse of a photo.

hello fellow bikers read the following :
One of Einstein's great insights was to realize that matter and energy are really different forms of the same thing. Matter can be turned into energy, and energy into matter.
For example, consider a simple hydrogen atom, basically composed of a single proton. This subatomic particle has a mass of
0.000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 001 672 kg
This is a tiny mass indeed. But in everyday quantities of matter there are a lot of atoms! For instance, in one kilogram of pure water, the mass of hydrogen atoms amounts to just slightly more than 111 grams, or 0.111 kg.
Einstein's formula tells us the amount of energy this mass would be equivalent to, if it were all suddenly turned into energy. It says that to find the energy, you multiply the mass by the square of the speed of light, this number being 300,000,000 meters per second (a very large number):
= 0.111 x 300,000,000 x 300,000,000
= 10,000,000,000,000,000 Joules
This is an incredible amount of energy! A Joule is not a large unit of energy ... one Joule is about the energy released when you drop a textbook to the floor. But the amount of energy in 30 grams of hydrogen atoms is equivalent to burning hundreds of thousands of gallons of gasoline!

what are you going on about 'sam heslop' get a life and stop posting your gay comments on such an awesome picture!
samheslop why are you posting about hydrogen atoms? have you managed to harness this power in such a way that it can fuel top Downhill pro's and guarantee them a win at world championships or something? if not why bother? anyway amazing picture well done 10/10
