Lighting on both shots looks really good, especially the first one. The second shot is a bit strange looking. I had to look at it really close to figure out what was going on. It looks like you took this just as he tried bailing his bike, and it's one of those akward butt shots. Overall, good shots.

First shot is reasonable but could do with tighter cropping. The second shot would be much better if it more head on, more face and less back side, tighter cropping like wise would help.
Movement is stopped OK.

I like them both. I don't like overly tight cropping on riding shots - often people suggest tight crops but i think you lose a lot of perspective when you crop the shots right in. The first one is bang on for me, I really like it - I think you got the lighting and the framing perfect, I wouldn't change a thing. The second is cool because I can appreciate how much fun stair sets like that can be, but I agree that the bum shot isn't the best viewing perspective..

You can never have to many BMX post for the record. I like the first one, 180 sprockets are a fun thing to do.
