Patto at Chris Henderson's Trails in Wangaratta, Australia - photo by patto

Super seat at Hendo's before many beers were consumed. Thanks so much to John Buultjens from Pilgrim BMX for the photo!!!!

Photo of the Day on Jan 16, 2012 - more PODs

Selected by Ian Hylands - It's always nice to see where our photographers come from, and it's awesome when one of them has the skills to be in a POD photo themselves. Patto, killing it on both sides of the lens!

i want to be constructive and be on topic i learned from my last account the got banned NICE JK GAY

VTwintips (Jan 17, 2012 at 7:54)

you'd be getting banned for homophobia this time. That comments not constructive, but I don't think that that matters. The problem is that its ignorant to a large group of people, stupid.

how did he shoot this? just set it to continuous mode and start doing the jump over and over again? anyways I'll go crazy thinking about that so amazing photo! I'm more of a downhill guy but I can't ignore a photo like this

MtBxKinG (Jan 16, 2012 at 4:21)

Read the description, somebody took it for him

StinkyKieran (Jan 16, 2012 at 14:03)

... wouldn't that make it that guy's pic?

finnrambo (Jan 16, 2012 at 16:20)

thats what I'm thinking to... anyways lone wolf did the same thing so whatever

OwenCross (Jan 16, 2012 at 21:06)

Well Patto probably set up everything for the shot(composition, lighting, camera settings etc.), then told his buddy just to press the shutter. That takes no skill. He probably edited it too

Oh thats what a proper roll in looks like. Imagine that people hitting jumps with speed?? Sounds crazy but many spots around here have uphill start and no room to pedal = no fun.
