Very cool shot. Too bad the place didn't have a retractable dome.

A suh-weeeet shot of an amazing feat! I probly did that once when I used to race motocross. ...but not on purpose and it ended very, very badly.

Well captured, Brad!

I never get tired of seeing sports action shots like these. I think they're indicative of the skill of the photographer. A second in time that becomes unforgettable once seen. Well timed and more importantly, captured... even the border compliments :)

great and possibly painful capture (for him and hopefully not you).

On the first 15 pictures I see, I'm looking for a full 30 seconds and leaving a comment...nicely shot. I wish the biker's head was in view. Heads are always nice to have. I'm not sure why portions are very sharp (the "scuft") and other portions aren't (the green sticker at the bottom). That's a slight defect, but nothing bit. 7

What a great photo, just really enjoy looking at it, the contrast and sharpness are perfect. As a photo it rates 10 but without the title it just doesn't scream the number 10 or ten anythings. Hope the best for it and you.
