What's Wrong With This Picture?

It is wrong on so many levels, but let's start with the natural terrain
this person is "mountain biking" on. That "jump" or whatever it is is
a complete eyesore POS.

That's the perfect jump for the Sledgehammer.

LoL .... that looks exactly like the cheesy stuff we used to build next
to the train tracks when we were little kids, playing on our bmx bikes
with all the bright blue, red and purple ano.

Dang, remember those days: no shirt, helmet or pads, and many times you
weren't even wearing shoes. And you usually had to ride with one of your
friends on the handle bars because he didn't have a bike.

Anyway, you're right, [censored] like that should be torn down.

You know, with the pace of the world advancing so fast, I'm glad to see
the technology we used to incorporate into street jumps hasn't advanced
much. Nothing more thrilling than hitting a jump made of a 3' plank on
a pile of bricks at full speed. Nothing more harrowing than watching
your overly competitive little brother blast through those bricks like
a pitcher of Kool Aid ("Oh yeah!!!"😉 on his way to a macadam face plant
and some broken teeth.

Anyway, to the subject I say, "Have fun, Flyboy!"

The name of the pic. Laughable, man.

Looks like PV.

Looks fine to me. He looks a bit tense in the air; the trail dips after
the jump so I'm guessing he's pushing the noes down to land on the
slope.

No "Red Bull" logo on his T-shirt.

Yeah, but he has a "Hurley" shirt, which may as well be a Red Bull
shirt as far as being a trendy goofball goes.

JD wondering if a "Hollister" or "West Coast Choppers" shirt would have
been better for this one

Yeah, it could have been a prefabricated thermoplastic POS instead of
the garbage pile that it is. Then again, junky street jumps belong on
the street, not in the dirt.

Yeah, he's lacking in the Darth department a bit, isn't he?

If I'm right and it is the place I think it is the landing is steeper
than it looks so he'll be fine.

I looked like Palos Nerdes to me too, which explains the Hurley shirt.

JD

It's Travis on his new Kona Coiler the Army bought him for not trying
to enlist again....

Good thing he's got all that armor on. That's a sweet jump 😉
