thats an awesome pic!!!
This is Bullsh!T. This is definitly pod just because it's jaws. It's a good picture, but not for pod, and once again, for the thousandth time, ANYONE CAN TURN A BIKE!
dude look pod doesn't have to be some amazing feat of technical skill. just appreciate the fact that it is a good picture of some really fun looking riding. sure anyone can turn but not anyone can take a really nice crisp picture with a great layout and sick colours
Actually, anyone with a expensive camera or good photoshop skills can. And thats the problem! POD should be a display of some amazing skill of BIKING not 'OMG cool scenery!' When both are put together is when you get a good pod
well i think its good to see a good clean image with good composition rather than somthing overly photoshopped or obviosly hdr. also "suicide downhiller" an expensive camera doesnt make a photo good the photographer does.
Thats not really true at all! you can take a damn good photo with any camera. Im a photographer myself and I know that having flashy kit doesnt make good photos. This is a well composed shot which should be POD! As for photoshop, you cant make a good photo from a shit one with photoshop you can just make good pics a little better! Maybe you should give the guy a break because as far as im conserned this is a pic to be proud of!
I guess susicidedownhiller is one of these people that never really rides fast otherwise he wouldnt of made a stupid comment of "ANYONE CAN TURN A BIKE" you have no idea how challenging that terrain is or how fast hes going so JUST TURNING the bike may become a lot harder then you assume
Yeah, big 'burd' your right, 'suiside', me, always goes slow. Otherwise I wouldn't 'of' made that comment.
I don't like this picture, I want something challenging to the rider, not a corner.
I'm just saying there's way better pictures out there

i dont think POD shouls be just 50ft drops and 100 ft gaps, i mean pB is about sharng the ride, not about my ride is better than youras, and you cant do this, so dispite he isnt doing anything out of the ordinary, this is an awsome pic!

i was wondering where Szczeki was haven't seen a POD from him in a while. Nice photo though all about caputring how much fun you can have on a bike.
really disappointing POD today guys, theres other non pro photographers on this site that have photos better then this. ive had some of mine rejected because they have 'nothing special' in them, whats special about this? its just an ordinary shot in my opinion, kinda point and shoot, no lighting set up, not much timing involved like there would be with a big jump or a rooty section, just a straight forward shot....
How Can bigburd Say suicidedownhiller Carnt Ride When Hes Sponsored By Karpiel And Can Kick Your Ass Anyday 
i agree 100% with suicidedownhiller. like seriously this is really nothing special and i deffidentally dont think this is pod worthy. just my opinion.
suicidedownhiller comments on every pod every day and causes an argument everytime,get a life and everyone else should just f*cking go out and rid how you wanna ride.

lol even though we are bilingual country it really doesn't apply to us, just our cereal boxes and lables. But if your going to post something regardless expect negative props if one person takes it the wrong way. and then when you retaliate (?) it only gets worse. i might get negative proped for this.

i agree that this shouldn't be pod, its not that great of a picture there's so many better shots on pinkbike...like yesterday's pod for example, now that was pod. oh and the frame around this shot is annoying.

dissapointed with this pod, yes its a nice bike but there are better pics on this site.. he's not doing anything special. but hey, maybe some oaks will like it
Very bland pic this, but obviously the Pinkbike/Transition link made this POD!
Yet again they have devalued what a POD stands for, total cop out, hang your heads in shame!

maybe post up the pic of that missing BC rider. with all you guys riding out there someone may have spotted him
I'm just glad we have a photo where it doesn't look photoshopped or any adjustment done. Just a photo of where we would all want to be instead of reading this post!

You know what guys...I don't know what the heck to think when you get a POD here...seriouslly...you guys don't appreciate the fine pictures, shooting a photo is not just hit the buttom of a camera and then downloaded into the computer and photoshoped...is the whole essence of riding, to be honest....i wouldn't "try hard" to get a picture as POD when you have tons of shmucks saying crappy things about the pictures...
the only reason this is pod is because his name is jaws. it shouldnt be the pod anyone can turn a bike. bs

POD? Are you kidding me?
What's going on here? I see pictures with much more POD potential than this.
Not saying this is a bad picture, but picture of the day?

its not a bad picture including a good rider but it just isnt pod material sorry, neg prob me if you want
The picture is a fake and photoshoped, the pine was not there, the pilot was riding in a concrete skatepark and then it was put, through photoshop, in a terrain surface, look at the color of the handlebars, that brand does not edit handlebars that color, see the brand of tires , it doesn´t exist, there are no clouds in sky, and that is impossible .... I know what I am talking about, I'm a great photographer, probably the best of all... but I never get a POD.
maybe this pic, is not realy a pod but jaws is a f*cking good rider!!!! and tommy superstar is a good photographer maybe better than wouwoundknee.
