Selected by Matt Wragg - I suspect we're going to see a few of these re-workings of Sterling Lorences corner shot with Matt Hunter this year. When they are done this well it's nothing but a good thing.
@dualauspensiondave you comments are at the bottom hidden because enough people decided they didn't like what you were getting at. Yes this shot is similar to another recent and well known shot, yes maybe a bit too similar and taken just a bit too soon after the other shot in question, but head on bar drag shot have been done for years so who's really copying who anyway. And speaking from experience it is often a riders idea to replicate or reinterpret a rad shot they've seen elsewhere... And the photographer just makes up half the equation.
Yeah, people are too caught up in who the photographer is with this photo. I call things how I see it, and what I said is true. We wouldn't want to piss off arguably the best mountain bike photographer in the world now would we. I just think that he's better than that. Always liked his photos for quality and originality.
Who cares ?? This isn't matt hunter, this isn't a specialized 29er, and it's not night like the ""original picture""... All I see is a sick photo that I personnaly would like to have on my wall. Please.....
