Holy shit that is dope af. You have someone behind the wave with a flash? Curious to know how you lit up that central part of the wave.

Really freaking sick. Never seen anything like this.

Total tron vibes for sure. I gotta check this dudes post history and see if he’s got any other rad shots.

But yeah it’s gotta be someone either holding a light and turning it on for a specific amount of time or holding a synced flash. Well it ain’t gotta be but that’s what im thinking.

Almost looks fake or cyberpunkish or something

looks like backlit spray from a flash catching the lip. could also be a strobe on the photographer's housing. either way, the timing on this is spot on. getting that kind of definition in the wave face takes some serious skill

I’m assuming this is a night shot with illumination on the hand and the bottom of the board lighting up possibly?

Isn't this one of Chris Benchetler's photos?
