Replying to pretty jumps
as a poser park tech for the past two year's i've learned to appreciate well built jumps. ever see a jump and just say 'wow - that's one beautiful jump'? i love watching snowboard video's half because they got such orginal and cool jumps (backcountry and park)... and they all look real cool. I think a lot of people take well built jumps for granted. everyone has their own idea's as to how gradual the transition for the take off should be, how kicky the take off should be, how steep the landing should be... and it's all done by eye work. it's just you and the groomer building a jump (or your shovel if you're in the backcountry) so you gotta have it in your head before you start doing anything.
anyone else enjoy just building pretty jumps and admiring jumps? building jumps is an art... and it's fun shit too.
