Kali Maya - Affordable Half-Shell Enduro Helmet
There's WalMart in Slovenia? Or are you suggesting that HE could go to WalMart, and the "low budget" helmet that you used in the past was in fact the hollowed out watermelon that you referenced?

Shocking! Mountain Bike Stolen At Gunpoint
Yet people complain about loose gun laws in the U.S. ...Some of the trails I ride are in the ..."more rural areas" of my neck of the woods, and I open carry when riding those. Half because I am genuinely worried about what I might run in to, and half because I CAN. While he was taking the time to chamber a round in that POS pistol I'd have been unloading a magazine of .45 Hydrashock hollowpoints... high quality duty rated holster and high quality, safe action firearms FTW

Opinion: Who Owns a Trail?
If so... I own a LOT of trail!

Flight of Icarus...
kbrock, I doubt there is any need for preload. Based on the video footage of his crash on this jump, I'd say there is more of a need for braking than boosting. All I know for sure is: 1.) I'll never be able to answer that question from personal experience... the POV video of his run in to this jump scares me just watching it, and, 2.) apparently there is enough air time to say, "Oh... Oh... oh my gosh, oh my gosh" (which are much nicer than the words I woulda said...).

Sequence Saturday 46
It would seem that the sponsor (Evoc) would want to get the prize out as quickly as they could. You'd think they'd want to use the chance to get newer stuff out there for others to envy rather than have the winner of this contest get the goods 6 months after their buddies had already bought one. But what do I know? I'm still rocking my DaKine from 5 years ago... holds all of my gear, still looks good, and holds up to washing.
Let's see if that fires 'em up to get their stuff out.
+1 to Kamba6. I'm in the same boat... although, this is my 1st sequence response. Apparently no one rewards you for having clever thoughts. :(

Hey 26Street, you coulda' ended that statement @ "isn't about the trick"... everyone would have still known what you thought of it being POD material anyway. Besides that, some of us might disagree. I happen to think that it's a perfect trick for this particular photo. Any trick that left the rider's arms stretched out (other than a superman, which isn't likely to be fully extended at that height, so not even it, I suppose...) would have killed the composition.
And that's what this is about... composition. The repeated angles starting from the asphalt invading the green base in the lower left, the heights/perspective of the poles, flipped bike, rider's body position, ...all focused around that green machine, floating in the gray sky, above a green base. Great capture.
