AS A SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHER, THE SKATE PARK COMPETITION WAS THE MOST CHALLENGING TO SHOOT. you have to be very close to the action with a wide angle lens while being very aware of your surroundings as a board can fast fly your way, possibly causing injuries or breaking your camera. but it is also the most rewarding competition as it is a fast-paced environment, it offers a multitude of action shots with spectacular tricks and falls. it is also a great opportunity to exercising your panning skills.
Vertical skateboarding always makes up for impressive action photographies. the skateboarders fly high and sometimes fail hard.
