This month, we’re focusing on action photography with a difference: a mountain bike track that offers its riders thrills and the occasional spill. With gloomy prolonged downpours forecast, we called in a pair of Godox AD200Pro pocket flash units. The weather might not have beaten us, but we did have to proceed with a single participant on the day. Fortunately, two regular Chicksands riders, Finley Davies (@ finley2012davies) and Kate Howser (@ kate_dirtyrides_mtb_apparel) gave up their free time to tackle the jumps, drops and slaloms – all we had to do was capture them clearly in the act. Read on to see what berms, no-footers, tuck-no-handers and backflips look like.
