At my local park. I'm bummed I won't be able to skate here every night anymore since I'm moving away to college :/

My friend Anthony doing a backside air:

He got behind my camera and shot some of me...

Great comp on the first two shots. On the first shot, his helmet kind of gets lost in the darkness, which is my only issue, but apart from that, they look pretty solid

Haha, I don't focus too much on PP'ing shots of myself, because after all they were shot by an inexperienced friend of mine. Thank you though! :)

This was both of our first night getting airs over coping, knee sliding is a nice painless way to bail. And helmets? After 2 concussions, I'll continue to wear mine. These aren't going in Thrasher or Transworld.

I'm with you on it as far as street stuff, but vert/pool, I'm not going to mind if the dude is taking a bit of a precaution. Especially since you have such a greater chance at destroying yourself on transition as opposed to street.

Yeah, I show a fair bit of respect for riders/skaters who actually wear lids when they ride. I ride, and I know the damage you can do without a lid, and it's not worth risking brain damage just to look cool...

The sad state is, so many pro's don't wear them, and you never see them in mags or vids, and it sends the wrong message to young kids, encouraging them to ride without protection, and mess themselves up big time.

I say props for using common sense, and they don't detract from the shots at all

Good captures, the first is my favorite…besides the rider being caught in the air, I dig the red board on the grey bowl, the nice skin tone, the pitch black horizon and most notable is the rail line running from center right to left bottom. Great work!!

First shot rocks--pads and helmets OK with me--they save skulls!
