the double road gap is so HUGE!!! this deserves POD 100%, but i still want to see a picture of the double road gap its self get POD!

theaggressor (Jul 6, 2008 at 0:12)

Nice! That is what a POD is all about. Great riding style, great scenery all captured the right way.

wcs90 (Jul 6, 2008 at 0:24)

POFD!!! everything in this pic is amazing

dotca (Jul 6, 2008 at 0:44)

A good POD finally! Yay!

aaustin (Jul 6, 2008 at 0:49)

Zack69, there are many pictures of hot chicks on this website. i suggest you find some, sit back, and stare at them for as long as it takes to set you right.

aaustin (Jul 6, 2008 at 0:51)

i just realized, i think his account got hacked lol, or he is really messed up, or he lost a bet... there are tons more of the same message below.

MattyCatchy (Jul 6, 2008 at 1:10)

Lol, but he still has to be f**ked to actually write that though!

Anyway, great picture!

superflyy55 (Jul 6, 2008 at 1:28)

did anyone notice but i think that isael cote running up to hit the double road gap in vicious circle??

hey umm, why has this guy used a flash during the daytime??

haroman666 (Jul 6, 2008 at 4:24)

I dont think anything could be said bad about this pic its awesome (Y)

schwarzer (Jul 6, 2008 at 5:30) (Below Threshold) show comment

dude, the unnecessary flash makes it look fair shopped
plus the rider is blurred, a tad
if youre gonna use a flash AT LEAST make the shutter high enough
i mean for cryin out loud!

ldog (Jul 6, 2008 at 6:36)

do you know even a little bit about photography? anything at all??

xtremerider33 (Jul 6, 2008 at 7:46)

now thats a POD that well deserves it

schwarzer (Jul 6, 2008 at 8:04) (Below Threshold) show comment

well ok, maybe i should have checked to see if this guy was a photographer before i opened up on my opinion..
still, why is only one part of the dude in motion blur
doesnt that irritate anyone else?
just this annoying little spot

stick900 (Jul 6, 2008 at 8:19)

He's shooting toward the sun, hence the flash...
Why can't you just accept that this is a good photo?!
And so what if a tiny part of it is blurred, its hardly taking anything away from it.

Good pic. Keep it up Smile

It bothers me too schwarzer.
Ruins what could be a great photo.

UK-mtb-rider (Jul 6, 2008 at 12:36)

a truly epic photo, definatly deserved pod! that double road gap is sick!

and for the people above: its not about the quality of the photo, its about the quality of style, trick and riding ect, ect

louiemac (Jul 6, 2008 at 14:11)

I disagree, i think both quality and syle are important. You could have a guy doing a sweet trick but if the quality is really bad, well it's not a great pic. But I don't find anything wrong with this pic, it's really good. Props to both rider and camera person. Great pic Big Grin

POD that's suchhhh a sick angle mad props to the photographer, and the rider

[Reply]

peeprox (Jul 6, 2008 at 6:54)

i doubt its a photoshop, the stick in the bottom right hand corner is lit up by the flash too. the blurring is probably just a funky camera effect due to the light/speed/whatever.

ryan-irvine (Jul 3, 2008 at 5:23)

pretty sure this is just the run into a giant drop over 2 roads (double road gap), which you can see just ahead in the photo, it's from a recent film I can't remember the name though, bloody sick he hits it so damn quick

MattyCatchy (Jul 6, 2008 at 1:11)

It is actually. The edges of the rider are blury but the rest of him isn't!
Still, very well done!

jameshealey (Jul 6, 2008 at 18:46)

it's not shopped because of the blur. you people don't know shit about photography. the blur is caused because the light of the flash cannot reach around the rider. The flash stops the motion in this picture. to have the rider completely sharp would have required more flashes on different angles, when using a flash the sync speed is only 1/250 on most cameras by the way. so for people saying to use a faster shutter speed, it can't be done unless you have a camera with a faster sync speed.

you people should read a book or something and learn about it before posting stupid comments!!
