you should have taken it from the other side so it would make a "S" but great action shot

Wow this picture is amazing. I like how the skater is at the top of the ramp going down instead of going up the ramp. The angle of the picture is cool because it is low to the ground yet it is still looking down at the skater.

This as a B&W I love, may not have liked it much in color but B&W this photo is great. I love the cropping and the curve is great with leading your eye right into the back of the photo with the skateboarder which I also like.

One of the really nice things is skateboarder's white shirt parallel to upper rim. (Agree about tilt; also think a third or so cropped off the bottom, making a sort of question mark but still "S" ish would highlight subject better).

For me personally this is the best shot in the challenge. It combines so many great elements, a fantastic s curve that is at once both subtle and obvious. A great action shot with a crispness of focus to die for and a wonderful wonderful b&w conversion
10 from me and if this doesnt ribbon then I have no idea what would

A 10 ! Everything is right. The curve leads me right into the skater which rightly so is the sharpest element in the picture. I can feel the potential energy.
