 I'd call it fake, he'd have to have a shitload of speed to get that high, the water would have left tracks, and it looks mossy and slippery, I wouldn't ride across that at high speed...

 Here is the vid boys:

 Even after seeing the video, I don't understand how we left no tracks, are they slick tires? Nice find and execution by the way!
  • 23 2
 Not sure either, maybe cause of the speed... The tires dried very fast? Cause if you look at the bottom, you can see some sort of tracks...

Anyways, the vid is a good proof that the picture is not a photoshoped crap...

 I think that the tracks are probably so small they're hard to notice anyway, and the sun is creating glare on that white concrete. Idk, it's not fake though. Video was legit! This spot looks like fun

 Look at the scale of the photo. The tire tracks would be extremely small, so it's no surprise they're not obvious!

 That picture shows more air than the rider actually had in the video. Nice job getting that perfect angle.

 man, there is so many good shots without helmets, how come the rule is there if they're going to keep breaking it?
  • 4 1
 i was thinking because of the heat and speed the tires must of just dried instantly.

 i want to know how he got all the way up there without getting his tires wet :S but its a sick shot!
  • 1 0
 maybe it was 60 degrees celsius out, and he dried

 He's not wearing a helmet!

 goin so fast the water sprayed off the tires within milliseconds of going through the water.rocket science
  • 31 1
 There are no tracks because he's using prototype Maxxis Moses tyres. They part any body of water that is in your way, giving you maximum traction and keeping you dry...

 it would suck if the water turned on...

 This is what biking stands for. Part of it. The other part for me is the Forest.. Dams and Forests. Very interesting..!! The nature of a rider. That is what is caught here. Those of us that feel this way.. That need that alone time, just the sky, concrete and for me a free ride bike of some kind. Its just the nature of things. The temperament It should be appreciated. Not everyone has this in them, nor will everyone ever get to experience what this feels like. It is the independent spirit. May the spirit live on.. Awesome pic...

 awesome urbanscape! I wish the rider was just a few feet higher to create a stronger separation. the combination of the color, reflection, exposure and the riders white shirt create great eye movement while still maintaining a strong subject.

 There isnt tire tracks because he didnt go through the water, he went through the middle, the angle makes it look like there is water all across..

 Its not even a good photo? Its taken squint and from looking at the video he didn't really do much. Just a fairly small tweaked air. It's a cool spot, but I'm not too stoked.

 Well, I think this pics is popular (+38 000 views) because of the unusual landscape... Must be really cool to ride and it is also very different from what we are used to.

Cheers!
