bump, i need to know!!!!! and if anyone is gonna respond with a few jumps and then some rails, don't even bother that is a pretty obvious assumption. how about exact number/type/size of features, that would be helpful.

If that isn't a reliable source I don't know what is.
I was there the other day to check it out and I only saw three jumps with scaffolding next to them. First was kinda small, like 35. Then about a 45er then about 60. They all lacked kick off the takeoff and the third one was hard to make. Oh, and the pipe sucks although word is they are going to fix that.

Sounds like standard shittily made Copper, why put the course on that run when no one can get speed? Â

i can confirm that there is a three jump line into two rail lines.
I'm not sure about the exact sizes but they were real lippy and felt and looked like
Jumps================
1st jump - 45-50 foot table
2nd jump- 55-60 foot table
3rd jump- 65-75 foot table
Rails
1st set of rails- kicker box(flat with an up curve at he end) or a down flat down
2nd set of rails-flat down box with a gap or a flat down rail.
3rd rail- flat box with a 10-15 foot gap to it.

The course is sort of weird, but its not bad. you go down the start ramp, over a huge roller and into the jump line. The first jump is bout 35 and really poppy. Then the second jump is about 45 and really poppy as well. The third jump is about 55 and hard to clear. then you have the choice of a box with a jump at the end or a dfd. This is followed by a F-D box and rail. the last feature is a huge gap to box. its not a bad course, its just a little weird
