I'm sure you're right - in length. but that's not the factor, airtime is. jon wrote that himself. This jump is gonna be so much better than candide's (I like to exagirate) because the jump offers smoother landings, more airtime (or atleast just as much) and it's overall safer if you want to throw down hard.

Dude what do you mean that's all? The width of that jump is at least 35ft. which should put it into somekind of perspective. They're going to get soo much air time out of that jump, but since the whole thing is huge, you cannot really appreciate it from those pictures. Just look at how small the skis are which are about 6ft. long themselves.
