i think what that gas man guy meant by when he said 'do you have any better pics of it?' is he wants to see the JUMP better. not the trick or angle, he wants to see the jump!

samgf1993 (Aug 21, 2008 at 4:28)

pretty crap in my opinion, supermans all look the same to me in every pic, no diversaty or individuality to them, and there arnt many angles which can make them look different to one another, not my favourite it must be said.

almostwise Mod Plus (Aug 21, 2008 at 5:13)

Fair enough, +props for explaining why you don't like. Personally I think it looks awesome Smile

Treebasher (Aug 21, 2008 at 9:04)

that isn't a superman, so not sure why it looks the same as all the other supermans you see. Gee - all the jumps look the same to me - first you go up a ramp, then in the air, then come down again - where's the individuality?
