^^^^^ do you really want that many negative props, STnightrider?

214

eza13 (Jun 18, 2009 at 9:06) (Below Threshold)

if were honest tho hes just hopin into a puddle???

22

boltondhr (Jun 18, 2009 at 10:13)

is there even a word that desribes how mint that looks???? eza13, yer he is just hopin into a puddle but its pod because of the picture! look at it!! its mint

312

vasta (Jun 18, 2009 at 10:46) (Below Threshold)

I think this POD sucks ass.... there is too much going on, i dont like it at all, its like "ohh coooool he landed his back tire in water and it made a splash...wow.... NOT"

33

core559 (Jun 18, 2009 at 11:02)

everyone needs to shut up about pictures being photoshopped. i guarentee you, that every single POD has been through photoshop at least a few times.

21

brycekicks (Jun 18, 2009 at 11:08)

actually....its a lip slide not a tire slide. cuz his front wheel is off the ground

40

scarfacerider801 (Jun 18, 2009 at 12:24)

eza13- he's not just landing in a puddle, he's lip sliding a quarter pipe that has water on top of it, its the same puddle as in this picture... www.pinkbike.com/photo/3565644

And to everyone who says this is photoshopped, i DO NOT EVER photoshop any of my photos, i edit them in lightroom and thats it, the only time it touches photoshop is to add a watermark.

11

STnightrider (Jun 18, 2009 at 14:57)

SORRY BOYS THATS ACTUALLY SICK AFTER SEEING THE OTHER ANGLES

00

boltondhr (Jun 18, 2009 at 15:58)

scarfacerider801, good for u!!! photoshopping is fake! theres no need to if you can take a good pic! and that is!!! soo good for you!

eza13 (7 hours ago) (Below Threshold) show comment
if were honest tho hes just hopin into a puddle???

its not the fact of whats happening in the picture its about how it is taken.....the way that the photographer got in there on that perfect angle and took the pic right with that splash there is what gives it the sick look.

21

nofootcanman (Jun 21, 2009 at 10:46)

how has insanus 1 got more neg props than St nightrider

Klata (Jun 18, 2009 at 1:21)

Huuuuge slide! Perfect shot! but... no helmet, no POD - that's rule

20

Bollywoggle (Jun 18, 2009 at 1:36)

didnt the guy in the vod yesterday not have a helmet?

12

tuxedo (Jun 18, 2009 at 1:44)

yea true about the no helmet thing but... when you get a piccy as sweet as this how can you say no?

10

QCIrider77 (Jun 18, 2009 at 9:55)

personally i think that the POD should just be of something cool going on, regardless of helmet or no helmet. i choose to wear one, many people dont and when they crack their heads on the cement i have no sympathy. But hey if its a cool shot just give it POD! Happy riding

00

nofootcanman (Jun 21, 2009 at 10:48)

hes got a freakin piss pot

00

Bollywoggle (Jun 21, 2009 at 13:45)
