rippin-norco (May 25, 2011 at 10:42)

patrickrupert, we all like turtles, but now is not the time to express your like for them, nows the time to express your liking for mountain biking

sick picture by the way

JesseBMXs (May 25, 2011 at 14:41) (Below Threshold)

52

gromhit (May 25, 2011 at 15:24)

to jessebmxs.. moto gp riders dont get close to the ground,they actually touch the ground with their knees going at over 90 MPH....

37

JesseBMXs (May 25, 2011 at 16:09) (Below Threshold)

to gromhit, i was just makin a metaphor of how close he was i wasnt serious

why not?

mrfitz424 (Jun 9, 2011 at 8:15)

just seems a bit to much to type how do you do that anyway?

10

eatdeeznutz (Jun 12, 2011 at 15:17)

boredom

10

mrfitz424 (Jun 12, 2011 at 16:06)

what can't ride?

10

eatdeeznutz (Jun 12, 2011 at 22:21)

naw bro my knees swollen like a cantalope hahaha i pulled a bunch of ligaments and im in a brace for the next 5 months

11

eatdeeznutz (Jun 12, 2011 at 22:22)

my advice to you: wear knee pads cause this f*cking sucks

21

mrfitz424 (Jun 13, 2011 at 8:21)

i don't really wear kneepads. i just wear jeans.

22

JesseBMXs (Jun 13, 2011 at 15:10)

only pussys wear kneepads, haha just kidding

21

RaleighVoid (Jun 13, 2011 at 16:14)

brakes are for pussys

11

JesseBMXs (Jun 13, 2011 at 16:21)

i bmx brakelees, best way to go!!

60

eatdeeznutz (Jun 13, 2011 at 16:28)

bmx is for pussies dh is for real men

10

mrfitz424 (Jun 13, 2011 at 16:34)

depends... bmx race good. bmx street not so much. park never done it.

11

JesseBMXs (Jun 13, 2011 at 16:38)

@ eatdeeznuts, if i had the right bike i would try dh, it takes skill to do BMX, almost anyone can ride dh, bmx race: brakes good. bmx street: brakeless. bmx park: doesnt matter; gyro, straight cable, or brakeless works

10

eatdeeznutz (Jun 13, 2011 at 17:04)

hahaha i dont wanna get into a big retarded argument on a pic, but anyone can do dh just as easily as anyone can ride bmx. it doesnt count if you ride around like a little pussy it matters if your actually hitting shit and rippin. bmx your seeing the same thing over and over again where as dh you dont know whats around the next corner, and in most cases have no idea how big the gap is your about to hit

21

JesseBMXs (Jun 13, 2011 at 20:03)

whatever, it really doesnt matter, we have different opinions, biking is biking

10

mrfitz424 (Jun 13, 2011 at 20:28)

is true.

11

JesseBMXs (Jun 13, 2011 at 21:18)

100% true

20

KTownRoyster (Jun 16, 2011 at 13:12)

bmx to me is pretty cool. i personally dont ride bmx because the bikes are too darn small. it hurts my back and neck.

20

rippin-norco (Jun 16, 2011 at 16:34)

I love bmx and dh, and xc/am, and dirt jumping! its all biking right? to me its all fun! i hate seeing people argue over what the best kind of biking is!

just go ride!

10

mrfitz424 (Jun 19, 2011 at 18:08)

bmx bikes are suckish to ride. wayyyyy to small for me.

11

JesseBMXs (Jun 19, 2011 at 18:17)

well again , its just a matter of personal opinion, yes bmx bikes are small, but if your gonna be doin tricks on them you want a smaller bike

10

mrfitz424 (Jun 19, 2011 at 18:19)

true again.

yeticycles (May 25, 2011 at 9:06)

Photographer is Craig Grant who is the creative director here at Yeti.

Congratulations Craig... nice POD.

for you man

hoolydooly (May 25, 2011 at 0:50)

This picture was my desktop background for so long ages ago, such a dope picture!

WAKIdesigns (May 25, 2011 at 3:00)

"As a side note we will be choosing less and less POD images that aren't posted by the photographer themselves, I have no idea who even shot this one..." - yeah Ian, eventualy you will find some old picture of yours in someone's album, after few tweaks in PS, like changed hue on riders shirt from red to blue, some work with replacing sky with other tint and different clouds

on a side note: we should get some PS of the Day once

120

IanHylands (May 25, 2011 at 5:24)

that's fine with me, if people want to take my photos from here and turn them into an art project I'll let them. But they won't be getting POD that's all. And we already have to deal with being asked to remove photos that people have taken from other sites. This photo is legitimate, but I prefer if the photographer is at least credited on POD.

90

ericpalmer (May 25, 2011 at 6:08)

I like that a lot! Rider & photographer credit is essential IMO... I want to know who's skills I'm appreciating

11

WAKIdesigns (May 25, 2011 at 6:43)

Until there is no PSoD let's keep it that way, yes... otherwise I will be a strong pretender with my "art" projects - psart or shmart would be a better word actually, too much mouth wiping with the term "art" these days, I find...

10

Callum-T (May 25, 2011 at 9:36)

Took me a few time to read through that and fully understand it, at first glance Ian i thought you were saying ''we will be posting less and less images posted by the actual photographers'' i was like WTF!! haha, Sound legit though this is the real reason behind the whole POD concept, im guessing

10

sngltrkmnd (May 25, 2011 at 21:04)

I hadn't given it too much thought, but I totally agree- ericpalmer has it nailed - it kinda sucks to see a POD that lacks the credit. Kinda also dilutes the cred - altering someone else's work is really tantamount to stealing, so I'm with IH on this. Again, big props for "cleaning up" PB since you've put on the sheriff's start, Ian.

50

bh3x7 (May 25, 2011 at 0:41)

I have a doubt... is this about how I want to do a turn as rider or how to shoot a picture as photographer ? Great POD

60

OllyJ (May 25, 2011 at 1:37)

both mate!

20

nouser (May 25, 2011 at 12:24)

im an expert off going on the floor. just can never seem to ride it out

30

adove (May 25, 2011 at 11:20)

Good call on only posting photo's taken by the photographer as POD's. Yay intellectual property!

20

Liggster (May 25, 2011 at 0:48)

Great lighting and leanage :-D

Pointit (May 25, 2011 at 0:57)

60

lukegriffiths (May 25, 2011 at 1:19)

Yeah he's quite low and the lightings good and its still a stick shot, but I think he's saying he's seen pictures that are just abit more eye catching.

40

nick09 (May 25, 2011 at 6:03)

@ThyDevourer97 get to specsavers.

10

cikudh (May 25, 2011 at 23:12)

IMO, this is quite hard to do for both rider & photographer . . . when coming in fast, the berm will looks so tiny, and its a split second for photographer to get this moment, its all by senses ... GOOD JOB for both of them

10

eatdeeznutz (Jun 6, 2011 at 19:07)

actually they use a continuous shot setting on their camera. they start shooting before he enters the berm, and stop after hes out. then pick the best one.

11

KTownRoyster (Jun 16, 2011 at 13:29)

i kinda agree not the greatest but still cool although ive seen shots like this as pod too many times. and he really isnt leaning that far he is on a berm. lean your head or screen till the berm is horizontal he's not leaning that much. he seems to lean really low but with the physics of a berm overcoming gravity to a degree he's no different than riding next to a wall. with the right velocity and berm angle a biker can be completely horizontal and not feel gravity pulling.
