Hey... i gave this a 7, and I have to admit... I thought this would do well. This deserves more than a 5.5 avg. As far as some people saying that this is not 70's... you need a history lesson, because thats when it erupted. And that board he is using is definitely not 80's. Thats a 70's style board and design, and had no place in the 80's and 90's. I was a sponsored skater in the 80's to mid 90's and I was not riding those, so I would know.
As far as the 1980's are concerned, the 80's was more of the evolution period in shape and design. But skateboarding is definitely a 1970's icon.

I agree with bpickard. This picture should have scored higher. Great shot and 70's feel. Skateboards were a 70's thing with the banana boards. I don't know how someone would not remember that. I gave you a 10.

| Somehow skateboards don't really say 70s to me. Nice shot though. |

| Sorry, but this has too much an 80's-90's look to it. |

| This has winner all over it. Practically the only shot in this challenge with INTEGRITY and it does show in the way that I look at it. What it reminds me of is those rather patronising and forced articles that National Geographic had at that time: for example, this could be 'Work and Play on the West Coast'. The muted colours, the soft focus and the great composition all hit the nail on the head. In a word: perfect. |
