    What specifically are you refering too? The lens effects or the color and contrast of the photo?

    Well, these are shot with a fisheye lens which is what is distorting the edges. They are also shot with a flash which is brightening the skaters and darkening the sky. You could do some of this in post as well. If you shoot in RAW you should download the Lightroom trial and give it a whirl, it's awesome.

    Not looking at the lens effects, high pass sharpening and/or unsharp mask and even slight HDR usually give me similar effects.
    Here's a link that can give you some starting points when using the high pass filter for sharpening and contrast: http://www.enigma-photos.com/LucisArtTutorial/

    Well i doubt it's HDR, as u need multiple exposures and that would be tough to stop the action like that! here is a nice FAQ on HDR that explains the concept in numbers:

    Here ya go!! to get this effect or very simular this info should get you on the path.. camera is a hasselblad with fisheye Lens " Faster sync speeds large image area distinct contrast do to lens greatly improves image quality .. , Fisheye lens is a must for skate photography, Used low to ground shooting up distorts image to exaggerate trick and will include a lot of back ground which creates a since of place.., Slide film is used most likely 100 iso shot @ 200 Multiple flashes are used connected to wireless sync , with the multiple flashes youll get good for ground and side lighting "ie" studio effect , slide film has such a low error for exposure even -1/3 under exposure can darken image quite a bite ...
    "ie" So if youre flash exposure was 5.6 and ambient was 1/2 stop under close to f8 you should end up getting a darker sky with proper exposure on subject
    try shootong in late afternoon evening to inhace effect... oh yeah a good scanner Pictures youve shown are drum scanned
    hope this makes sense and helps ..........
