stevens pass doesnt measure their jumps, because if they say its 75 feet, and it turns out to be 77, and some kid breaks his neck on it, then they are liable for mis labeling it

I am going to have to say false. From takeoff to knuckle at rocking chair the so called 60 footer is no bigger than 50 ft. The landing allows for bigger but rarely have people been clearing knuckle to about 5 ft past knuckle.
