It would have been a great job if it wasn´t so poor in contrast. In order not to create a motion blur image, i would use other apperture. It would enhance the contrast in the subject and would blur the background, cleaning up the distracting poits behind the motorcycle and the flying guy.

Good resolution but seems like you were just using it to have an opportunity to show this photograph...no way you could wear a seatbelt doing this.

This is one of the best titles I have ever seen!! Pick is an 8, but with the title, it's a 10.

I think a seat belt May cramp your style! LOL
Wow this would be great for the action challenge

Um... I would never wear a seatbelt on a motorcycle -- do you think I would want to be strapped to the OUTSIDE of 500 lbs of flying metal? I know, not much of a comment on photo composition -- sorry.

Outstanding capture to freeze the action! Dynamic action shot. Like very much the way you've caught the biker so that he is in between the lights on the ceiling. Image could use more contrast though and I wish you had zoomed in a bit more to show more detail.

I know how hard these shots are, and you did a very good job. The color's a bit flat, but worth an 8.

Last time I was on a motorcycle they didn't have seatbelts. I'm almost positive they still don't. Good shot of a freestyler though.
