Bird Park

So if you've recently been to bird you know that they've changed up their park a little bit. But does anyone find it hard to get enough speed to actually hit some of the jumps? the landings on some of them (2nd and the one after the down rail) are too far away for how slow the ride up is.
I was up there this weekend and no body was really hitting those two because of this problem, you eat shit or case the landing everytime.

Prop's to bird for steeping it up but they need to shorten the distant you travel cuz of the speed issue!

Does anyone else think this or have this problem?

Yes I agree, all the park jumps should have 5 foot tables because clearing 20 foot jumps is both difficult and extremely scary

I'm glad they made things a bit longer, they're still pretty small, though.

I wouldn't even worry about hitting the one after the flat down box, that is your first problem. 2nd jump go straight from the first one after you land and you are golden. Go fast and big, nobody ever really gets hurt that is only in the movies.

That second jump after the top you just gotta not stop or turn and you will clear it fine. its a little intimidating cause your going mock 10 down that hill but you'll just barely clear it.
