Photo of the Year 2024 goes to Amr Omar — timing, patience, and frames that made the scene look the way it actually feels.
Photo of the Year 2024 — Amr Omar.
A great skate photo is one part timing, one part patience, and one part being willing to lie on the ground in the worst possible spot to get the angle. Amr brought all three in 2024. His frames didn't just document the scene — they made it look the way it actually feels to be there.
This is a salute to the people behind the lens, and this year, to Amr. Thank you for feeding the culture.
