Description
This might not be the best performance. If you look close you can see my hand isn't grapping my skates. I took it to the maximum, but I guess that was more than I could handle. I came too high and I had to bail after that, but it's still a nice picture in my opinion.Just had to tell the truth even though I risk that you change your opinion on my picture.

hehe. He used my camera and the settings I selected, but it still takes a lot of timing to get this right.

I think you are too hard on yourself. Since I'm gonna pursue Photography as my career in the future, I have to watch over your work! I like the shadow concept, the bravery of you to actually skate. I don't dare to do extreme sports - i don't like to bleed!
Lovely shot, i think you are too hard on yourself. Who cares if your hands are not touching the skate - it's still a daredevil stunt!
be safe!

wow thank you I'm really honoured (is that spelled correct, didn't bother to look it up) by your words.
It's not often you bleed well I did when I slammed my chin down the vert last year. My friend did bleed (A LOT) when he landed on his face (ended up getting 4 stitches) and loose teeth. That is rare mostly it's your knees (the protective doesnt always work even though they are the best!!), maybe your butt I guess that takes a lot of damage too. My worst slam wasn't really a slam it was when I bailed and twisted my leg and angle around very painful haven't recovered yet oh and of course when I landed on my d... really painful, but it didn't very long and hour max.

haha, nah, i really don't like to see blood and do things that can result in bloody stuff. I think that photo is brilliant so you should take credit for that.

I like that 'skate or die' I feel I would die if I didn't skate.

It's a good picture indeed... not only did you capture yourself in mid air and upside down, you got a nice backdrop for it too... nice!

thank you, but I cant take credit for taking the picture. I had a friend to take it. I told him what to do setting up the camera etc. but we are a team. I'm really suprised how it looks how calm I look when you consider everything goes wrong lol. Wouldn't have been possible on video
