you and i both know that jump is NOT 95 feet long though.  maybe lip to landing, but not in horizontal travel.

oooh nice humps!
would you rather have 1 super giant jump, or 4 or five mediumly large jumps in a row?
like 30 to 40 feet.

or come to mammoth and have both of those things.
multiple big jumps in main (including an 80 ft) and 5 tables (30ft to maybe 50 ft?) plus a big hip in south park


The big jump in Unbound Main (not the bottom 65 footer) measures in at about 80 to the knuckle.  sweet spot is 110-120.

for austria, ischgl got a 65 and a 75 pretty much open to public (lip to knuckle) the landing on both is easily over 100 long,

some friends of mine just fucked up their guinea pigs and went like as much down the landing as the tables long, so they went for like 130 and they could still land it straight air, so i think youre fine on both of them as long youre going for like 90 to 110.

Marquette mountain, in Michigan, has had in the past jumps weighing in about 85 lip to knuckle.  Not this yea though, stupid management.

Somebody please post a pic of Nick's at Alpine Meadows. Thing hits 85+ every year. It's about the smoothest jump I've ever hit too. Thing's a work of art. Check out member Nohajs profile pic. Only photo I can think of.

the jump above is from mt washington on vancouver island when they originally built it, it was about an 85 foot table but then the park crew who built it got to take the first hit on it and overshhot and blew out both his knees so they took about 15 foot off table off this is it at about 70 feet but u go fucking huge on it so it should count for bigger because of the vertical u get off it

i saw it today. they still had a cherry picker up there.

also, i'd say something in freeway at breck would have to be in contention for biggest jump open to the public...?

umm im gonna say june mtn, but i havent been this year... usually in there gunsmoke park they have lots of 90's and im pretty sure they had a 100 when i went.. so far this year the biggest jump ive hit is the 80(+?) stepdown at whistler... looks a little bigger than the mammoth one.

Flaines park was awful last year. Shit jumps, poorly shaped.  The little rail park in Forum was sick though.  Must have gotten better for em to build an 80ft?

killingtons park for grand prix is probably the best in the east coast right now, but to bad its not open to public. far exceeds standards of a good east coast park and jumps are bigger and poppier than us open in stratton.

well, bringing up old stuff is the new thing i guess, so i just complete this thread with a sequence shot (of myself) on our 22 metres kicker in ischgl, austria. it should surely be one of the 10 biggest public kickers in the alps that season...

the kicker itself isnt carved out like mad to make it look high, the table is flat (you see these rakes, you know how tall they are) so you start pretty high, almost something that people would call a stepdown... 

Sequenz 2
