Spray Paint can fuck your bases up, i wouldent do it, pine needles/branches work when your on a mountain, other than that food color with water and a bottle

yea. if you're out there with a jump built and ready to hit and don't have any dye trees are probably your best bet. line the jump with greenery, and throw a couple branches down on the landing as well so you have something to spot. nothing worse than losing the ground while all sideways or upside down and shit.

spray paint is probably worth it. if not well you can use a number of the other suggestion on here or even get a couple branches to show where the jump is or where the lip is.
