yea but if we took the short cut it wouldn't have made for a very good picture? lol

it's ok, but when you see the standard of some of the POD's it's just not up there technically. but it's not a bad picture, think the color could do with some adjustments and it could have been framed slightly better. also i think the branch in the foreground should either have been really blurred out, as well as the distance by using a small aperture or it should have been in focus. (thats if the photographer is interested in critique) but guys don't just diss pictures' ....thats someone out there ripping, not sat at home on a forum.... and a picture is all about what it means to you! and for the rider it's a reminder that he loves to shred!! what it isn't, is a photoshopped, pro taken with thousands of bucks camera of some pro rider posing! and thats REAL if you ask me!! it's refreshing to see! and surely you can associate with that... well if you ride you can!!!!!

yea!! how the hell you didn't get speared by that branch i'll never know! it was like a foot away from me! could have been messy!

Booooom!!
