Default Skate Park

My 5yr old son has all of a sudden decided that he wants to be a skater. So I took him to the skate park today so he could see some older kids who know how to skate do some stuff. Unfortunately there wasn't anyone skating when we got there...but there were a few guys there on bikes so I took some pictures. Thought a would share a few that I liked as well as one of my son watching them.
Any critiques or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Some cool shots.The third one and the one of what I guess is your son, are really nice. Also, you may have a moderator say something to you, your only supposed to post 4 photos a day.

These are some great action shots. Very well done and thanks for sharing. Maybe next time your son will have the opportunity to skate.

Thanks. I'm anxious to get out to the skate park again and next time I will be sure to get shots from a bunch of different positions around the park.

Hi Evader and welcome to the site,
have to say I really like your images, especially the guy capturing some serious air time on the bike, nice job. You have some cracking images here and you should be really proud of your work, well done.
David.

Hello Evader,
I did basically the same this. My daughter has a boy friend who skates and we went to the grand opening of a new skate park. I took quite a few shots and had a great time catching the action. You and your son should check out my zenfolio link below. All of your shots are great my fav is the third one.
