How far would you go if you hit a backcountry booter that was 5ft tall, 10ft wide and maybe about 6-8ft long? Also, tell me if I should make it bigger cuz we wanna go big off this jump

use the pathagroen theorm to find the tragetory angle. then find the amplitude of the height. remember gravity is 9.8 m/s/s. use the equation t= (h+10/9.8)^.5. And then V times t = distance.

m/s/s = miles per second per second = miles per second squared

yeah it really depends on how steep the lip is if it has a big kick or not

it would have to do with the lip and if the landing is long. but i would say 35 to 55 if you go fast.
i just made one with some friends and towed each other with a snowmobile. it was about that size and we went easily 40 45 feet.

that gives you the launch angle on a dead flat spot and does not tell you anything about the distance cause really that depends on speed and the steepness of landing and terrain that it is built on like if you build it off a cornice or some shit your gonna go a hell of a lot farther than a step over or step up
