I think it helps alot been a skater myself and be able to relate to these people and get shots comfortably.
I did not know this skater till about a minute before the shoot, i sam that he was fairly good and saw we was doing this grind around the corner. I asked my if he could do it again and i would take the shot. He was really happy to do it as many times untill we got the shot.
I shot this with two speedlites, one backlighting and one on the side. I really like the contrasty lighting in skating shots especially backlit. Also using my new 8mm fisheye, i was playing with closeup work on the ramps to get the leading lines in the composition and also be able to see the texture of the ramp.
