 Freefreak - there are spots around in Russian cities build illeagaly, no one will grant a space for a freeride park. I know there are quie a few in Tula. And he is not wearing anything appart from helmet and googles. I don't know about Pland but we sure have show in winter haha and googles are essential. Norco A-line Park edition

 completely podworthy. cool pic..
  • 25 2
 would have been a better picture if the guy on the newish bike was on the right seeing as buildings and stuff are being built in the background and would sybolise the changes to the skyline aswell as the bikes..

 Yeah it's nice .
  • 5 3
 I doubt I ever would of picked up on that if you havent spotted it out.
  • 7 3
 they should switch sides, so the old bike is with the old background and the new bike is with the progressing background
  • 4 2
 I was actually thinking that too. If the photographer was planning to do that then I'm really impressed, very nicely and artfully arranged.

 they should have been on opposite sides with technology (the cranes) behind the present guy and the religion(thousands of years old) buildings behind the past. Other than that i like it Smile
  • 2 2
 What you don't know is that there is a monster down flat down that he is about to gap. I really don't care much about art at all but this pic is pretty cool if you look closely. There is the older form of biking on the right, newer on the left. The older part of the city is on the left but there is new stuff being built on the right. I can't tell if the photographer meant to do this but there is also a skateboarder on the right in the new region and there is a pair of (possibly older?) women walking in the older region. Then there are dreary looking clouds that surround the entire seen. It is kinda like a yin yang symbol composed of old and new. Like I said I'm usually not a fan of art at all but I guess its better with bikes.
  • 1 1
 oh yeah jump off things to flat so cool
  • 1 1
 Oh yes please: I want more of this. Do you guys realize how meaningfull that picture is? Two different guys, two different worlds, but they ain't affraid of looking at each other in the eye (well, so to speak, the rider on the left is still wearing his googles on). That picture is bang on.
