I was invited to attend the one-day Xgames Oslo on behalf of Method Magazine, and these are the images that I shot there. As you can probably tell, I was more interested in the details than the action. I figured that there were enough other photographers taking care of that, so I spent my time shooting plastic plants and portraits. I was also kicked off the skate course for crashing a practice session. I felt bad about this, but the arena was empty and there were only two people skating, which didn't look like much of a practice to me. Since these photographs were shot, Method Mag has not been invited to attend any subsequent Xgames events. Did I blow it?
