Jake:
Yes, performing in public is hard for some...but obviously not the individual who is shredding a balancing act. On a hard case, no less. I like your exposure, and I do not terribly mind your center framing, but I find the scene cluttered and the subject blends in too much. Since most of the subject is out of framing, the objects in which the skater is balancing on become vastly important, and need to be separated from the background crowd. I need my eyes to find the objects, then follow upwards to the skaters legs. You shot at f/5.6, perhaps f/2.8 could have given you enough subject separation, but that all depends on your distance to subject. I'm not talking 85L blur, but just enough to bring OUT your subject from the crowd. Still, a nice capture!

I'm a big fan of images where people are caught watching other people, and I thought Jake's image was awesome.
