He has mastered the art of getting covers that need context. Who's gonna measure the distance this time?

context is overrated when you can flatground kickflip that high. They shot it next to that bench so you could see how high the flatground kickflip truly is.

Op, you ok man? Being real here, you doin alright?

That’s actually a kick flip backlip on the arm of the bench

No that's a different spot with the same buildings, steps and trees. You can tell because the bench is different.

The audacity of people clearly not being able to tell this is kind blowing. Buffoons. All of them.

This is a sick photo and does a much better job of depicting the gap that the skater is clearing but the grizzly grip really ruins it for me

It looks more like a hardflip with his shoulders opened like that. I feel like backside flip would have his left shoulder dropped and him looking behind him more instead of in front

Even without a caption you'd know it's not a hardflip because he catches it with his back foot.

Say what you want about Sheckler, but he's got a mean kickflip. That kickflip photo is soooo much better than the bs flip.

Sorry

Now, we used to say we put on our tights to put on the world. So I don't think it tarnishes the image at all.

obviously this angle fits this spot best to show the distance, but Tyshawn/ Atiba woud receive a diss if they have used the exact same angle + distance is already known for that spot.
Don’t want to protect Atiba- but can understand the Choice of this angle.
Picture is pretty good.

I get that a lot of younger skaters here grew up with the Bieber-esque “Life of Ryan” Sheckler, and so they sort of justifiably ignore or make fun of him, but he’s seriously one of the best and most gnarly skaters of his era. I think the lie he told Phelps didn’t help with people’s opinions of him.

Vertical photos get covers, horizontal ones not so much. When you have shooting covers in mind vertical trumps all. If I'm Atiba shooting Tyshawn my camera will be vertical 99% of the time. Not a huge fan of this one. Tyshawn is blown out and the angle atiba was holding the camera is weird. It honestly looks like Tyshawn caught atiba offguard and atiba swung around and snapped this in the nick of time. That subway shot though was a masterpiece, just wish it was a better looking kickflip.
