this is gonna sound completely ridiculous cause i hav made plenty b4, but how big should i make a kicker goin for like a 10 foot gap with a pretty steep approach, and technique would help too...at the mnt i always have a board wit me who helps....also theirs a big snow banl nearby that i can use snow from..

big enough so you clear it but 10 feet is small, so it only has to be like head high to make it look good

Yeah you could do a 10 foot gap with like a 2 foot jump. I have like a chest high jump right now it has capabilities beyond my 20 foot landing.
are you jumping a stream or something?

Yeah, around chest high would be more than enough if you had plenty of speed.

You should build a massive kicker that sticks like 20 ft out from the hill, and huck a huge one over the gap, overshooting the landing by like 100 ft. Now THAT would be cool.

You need to build a six foot tall kicker and huck a 40' gap, 10' is weak sauce.
