Donk, isn't his foot just at the bottom of the pedal stroke, rather than a dab?

No way you'd get me up there!

There was a pic on here last week of two or three bike frames welded together into a frankenbike. Nothing special, but the next pic was of the rider doing a massive gap jump on it. Anyone?!

no way,the last one looks out of focus and im not a fan of using a lens that makes things look bigger or further than they actually were in jumping shots.
the hans rey stuff wows folk and the camera definately hasnt made it look bigger or better than what it was actually like.its dodgy stuff,end of!.the tweaked 360? bmx pic isnt amazing.although its not an amazing pic thats made me go wow,its the trick thats made me wow more than any of the other pics.to be able to do that is just unreal.

Apologies for trawling up a month-old topic but I just wanted to say having stood, in person, on the lip of that canyon gap it's [i]exactly[/i] as insanely massive as my photo makes it look.

Just sticking up for The Kid's honour, is all ๐Ÿ˜‰

Photoshopped.

Edit: Ah, I see what you mean. Yeah it is a 'shopped version. Not sure why anyone would want to though as the original looks big enough.
