Selected by Ian Hylands - I'm not usually a big fan of cropped images, I usually wonder what the photographer was trying to crop out, but this shot is just too nice to pass up. We get a lot of sunset dirt jump shots on Pinkbike, most of them pretty average. This one is epic. Sick whip, and beautiful light!
I can't believe everyone is wishing some random kid happy birthday. Lets get back on topic. This is one of the best POD's in awhile, to bad it wasn't in the POY contest.
Holy shit, is this guy really that great getting all these birthday wishes and props!Im jealous and congrats! I bet this is one of your highlights of the day for sure! Jaw dropping POD! Props to Ian for finding an amazing photo!
shit.. really unstoked about Bikerm. who cares about your birthday? and who cares about the top comment? insted of loads of happy birthday comments on a picture you have NOTHING to do with, it should be more comments about the picture.
I hope you had a SHIT birthday man, even hope you got a flat tire!
but SO stoked that my picture got pod! Thanks Ian!
that´s what yo´ mama said when i dumped her aswell... no, sorry about that. just kidding! but dead serious about the birthday comment. (yeah, even the flat tire!) cuz that has NOTHING to do with the picture.
and yes. i feel that i can comment it cus it´s my picture and im not that into his birthday really! don´t know what so special about getting top comment or getting a big bunch of ppl u don´t know to say happy birthday! do that somewhere else.
point is that comments on POD´s should be about the picture and not some guys birthday!
See some of the PODS that are up for VOD right now just really arent anything (but they are some cool ones). But this photo here I could see being a VOD
It may have seemed like i was, but no disrespect was meant to Mr Hylands. I was just pointing out that there is a difference between Dirt Jump and Big Mountain, and because its such a small part of the sport at this point in time im sure any Big Mountain riders would be happy for me to point this out.
@hoolydooly, I know that you meant no harm and your comment wasn't malicious.....just pointing out a small detail. It's just that he has been catching a lot of flack lately and I admit that I am guilty of it too, i'm just feeling kinda bad for the guy. Probably feels like he can't win for loosing, but who knows......I really shouldn't speak for anyone else.
Can I get a top comment?
Thanks.
