Pinning it on an xc bike better than most downhillers... #3 grabs my vote!

chuckmanbob (Oct 10, 2011 at 0:57)

i would guess with saint brakes that is not used much for xc, but i agree sick shot. ,

Or possibly, he's riding on a non-XC rig with a XC outfit

32 3

Jamieep (Oct 10, 2011 at 4:51)

Haha, just because someone isn't wearing a full face helmet and rocking out triple clamp forks to any little pinkbike grom they must be an xc rider.

I was shooting with the SPS guys (shameless photo plug) about an hour before, as you can see from the photo timestamp. Ruari rocked up midway through a xc ride to say hello. When you only have one bike i guess it has to be your XC and DH bike...

"How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big!?!!!

No surprise that photo made it into this lineup! All of them excellent.

That photo is not from his finals run. I think that's why a lot of people are all hyped about it.

ya but its the exact same whip as the competition one and its off the same jump... the only thing different is that theres no mud.

doorknob100 (Oct 10, 2011 at 18:35)

The mud is what made that whip, and his whole run for that matter, so legendary.

TheBAMFpro (Oct 10, 2011 at 18:53)

still makes a great picture none the less

I'd be willing to be Danny Hart was whipped-out even when he was being born. Any wagers?

I don't see why "Matt Jones Identiti rider doing a Yannick-style 3..." is an honourable mention when it beat the 2 above it fair and square on view count. Views is views. That's my view anyway.

JHewitt (Oct 10, 2011 at 9:14)

"We take the most viewed photos from the previous month, and pick our favorites out of the top 10. I left this month's photos mostly in the order they were in, with the exception of bumping duncanp's second shot down to the honorable mentions. I just didn't feel that it was as strong as the photos in 4th and 5th."

Sorry dude, for what its worth I think its a really cool shot...

dingus (Oct 10, 2011 at 11:02)

Probably should have read it properly

IanHylands (Oct 10, 2011 at 11:14)

It is a really cool shot, that's why it's here on this page, but I thought the other shots were better which is why I put them above it...

dingus (Oct 10, 2011 at 12:17)

Yeah. I hadn't noticed the POM format had changed from Jason Peters' original feature.

The spectator next to Danny's back wheel has got the best pink and black checked jeans! At least thats what I thought for a split second till I realised it was the catch netting! LOL

deadatbirth (Oct 10, 2011 at 13:00)

hart's pic looks just like every other pic of the whips he does on every single jump.....yawn. #3 destroying that berm low down wins in my book.

dirtman04 (Oct 10, 2011 at 20:34)

Rooker (Oct 10, 2011 at 0:53)

just a thought, dont include POD's in this list, get to see some of the other amazing photos

1 0

i-eat-dirt (Oct 10, 2011 at 8:31)

Maybe add one of two pics that aren't pods. Since the best pics make pod, all of these were pods, that would be pretty lame.

2 0

IanHylands (Oct 10, 2011 at 11:15)

Yes, but we choose from the most viewed photos of the month, and there aren't any photos that make the list that haven't been POD's... So while POD isn't a prerequisite for POM, it pretty much works out that way.

1 0

Rooker (Oct 10, 2011 at 16:46)

yea im not complaining just saying it would be cool if there was some way of getting pics that arent POD, but still cheers for doing this
