BMX Style Shots

[newyorkaddict]

Probably not gonna be to everyones taste, these 2 pics show off the style of the rider rather than being great photo's. I just liked the bright colors and both were of good riders and friends. C&C welcome

i have to agree, its very stylish riding in the photos, but the pics themselve dont excite me.

Much better angles could have been found i'm sure and the background is very distracting (maybe a larger apperture would help).

As far as riding goes, both excellent style.
As far as photography goes, not a lot to interest me.
Good shots though, nonetheless.

Cheers guys, as i said it was more to show the style of the riders, and not to show off the pics. I admit myself they are not the greatest i have ever seen, just wanted to show off the riders more.

Why do street and park BMXers rarely wear helmets?
I'm a mountain biker, dirt jumper, and I always wear a helmet, regardless of the circumstances, and as far as head dangerous-ness goes, dirt jumping is a lot safer than park and street.
Its always confused me :shrug:

Don't know mate, very rarely wear a helmet myself, i think it's just a belief in your abilities, and a bit of stupidity

the motto is 'if you don't fall off, you're not riding hard enough'.
