Picture Of the Month is back with more bangers from October.

From puddle splashing in the forest, to 360 drops at the Red Bull Rampage with a mix of Dirt Jumping and Racing thrown in too, this month's POM is a full variety.

Make the jump to check out the top 5!

When I am writing POM, I generally don't let you all in on which photo is my favorite, today is different. This photo blows me away, everything is amazing in it! I think the first comment on it sums it up, "this picture is more epic than the movie 300!" Parez1 you killed it with this image, amazing work.

Jacob Gibbins takes the top spot with such a good score that I thought it was a bug... No bugs here, nice job Jacob.

 i like to see something i can't do in a pod... we can all turn through a burm with a tough look on our face like every DH still shot ever made. quality photography, but not very action filled.
  • 1 1
 agree. photo should bring out the vibe and moment of the action. technical merit is never as important. ever.

 i disagree with the #1, the photo of the month should be either 2 3 or 4 :/
  • 3 3

 5 should be 1, the downhill shots aren't that cool. They are super sick pics, but that's no CAM ZINK.

 #1 WAS A GLITCH! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? throughout the 24 hour time period that it was POD it gained a total of 0 views!, 0!!!!!!!!! the moment it was the next day it started gaining more views! I thought people would notice you just have to look at the views, it was some really messed up glitch! how on earth did you not know that! by midnight when the next POD came, this one had something like 1300 views! that is absolutely impossible for a POD after 24 hours on the home page.

this is such a joke

 just look, as of right now that pic has a total of 9348 views. any POD will get to that amount of views by noon the day its POD! but this is weeks later! I am extremely dissapointed you guys didn't notice this

 Ether way it deserves #1 The colour and the weather looks properly sick, sums up British racing imo
  • 2 0
 zinks 360 was just pure god like bike controle. only thing i can think that could beat it is that blokes step down front flip. first attempt. pure sinister
  • 1 0
 #2 should be #1 for sure.. all epic pictures though.
  • 1 0
 I'm just saying cuz the #1 would actually have more like 25,000 views in reality, because of the fact that none of the views registered on its day as POD, which as a result would make the score a lot worse, maybe not top 5 but it still could've got #5

 What the big deal with the number 1. It not even that original, now number 5 & 2 that's a POD. Even number 3 looks like it should be in a national geographic.
