yea from looking at it today I'd say like 40, 45 to sweet spot I guess. I'm also really bad at judging distances though. and it's a true table now no more step uppish action goin on.

the lip is like 10-15 ft tall and there is almost a wall but its just really steep going to the knuckle. Its now like 60-70ft but the guys who were raking it said they were gonna shoot it and then not open it to the public.

on jumps like that when photo or video shoots are over all you have to do to open it to the public is fill in the gap behind the lip, or taper it behind so if someone jumps a foot off the lip they don't fall straight down.  even though that's a gaper favorite on the last jump in the crown.  and they usually say "oh man i jumped past the landing." which we then inform them they came up 40 feet short of the landing and they have a confused look on their face and we ask them not to come back into the parks.

carry on.
