Great capture! My only suggestion is to light up the ditch with another strobe. While the action is very impressive, the photo doesn't show the height of the rider in the air and where's he jumping from. From the skateboarding and bmx magazines I read they almost always show the background exposed as much as the subject.

Yes, i probably would have used another flash to light up the ditch but currently that is unavailable to me and as where he is jumping from, he is actually airing out of the canal, goin up one side and coming back down the same side, if that makes sense to you, but thnx for the input.
