cool shots - would love to try and capture something like this - a tight crop on the 1st one with the boarder against the black sky could work well

Thanks everyone, I like tighter crops normally with my skate shots but skate photography is different then most action shots because you have to have where their coming from and going in the shot that's why traditionally fisheye shots are so popular because it allows the photo to be taken closer while catching everything else involved sif I cropped it to tight you'd lose a since of how big it is and what he was actually doing. I see the mistake tight crops in a lot of people's photos who don't know how to shoot extreme sports because you see the skater in the air but have no idea what's going on. If you look at any skate magazine you'll notice what I'm talking about because even if its a handrail you will always see the beginning and end of it and they crop to suiit the the obsticle rather then the skater
