anybody else think its hard to get speed right especially for the last 2?  its like once you make it over the knuckle, the landing is like a cliff that gets steeper and steeper and  its like, your only options are to hit the knuckle of overshoot, it be cool if they just open parked like mammoth, instead of confining it to the smallest part of the mountain.. the miny parks on top are fun tho

and the new 2 jumps at the bottom... 1st one is like 25 possibly 30 feet,  the second is about 5 feet. so if you think the second one is the same size you will basically pull a simon dumont from tbc... great logic copper... build a 5 foot gap after a 30....

plus the landings are so steep that if you give like just 1 SECOND too much accelleration time before or you speed check wrong, you will overshoot like balls..   also does breck do the progressive jump size thing like copper where the jumps get bigger and bigger with the idea that your just supposed to let the landings keep you going faster and faster,,, except if you just rely on that you will simon dumont tbc on the last kicker...

I'm slightly confused by what you're saying but I don't think the landings are any steeper than the landings in Freeway...

Except the left side at Copper isn't nearly as poppy as Breck's jumps and the far right side is way poppier. Have you hit that line? You'd prob like those better.

I was thinking the same about the size thing though. It doesn't seem like they get progressively bigger on that left side like they do at Breck.

Either way I love that far right line.

Copper's left side was decent early on in the season, but now it's kinda lame.
Personally, for jumps I like the smaller ones on the right side, as I feel they give you more air time than the bigger ones, but still Copper's jumps are generally pretty weird.

And yeah, I feel you on how easy it is to overshoot the second jump in the last jump line, I overshot it by 30 feet yesterday, but they reshaped it last night so it's better now. The last two jumps are arguably the best jumps copper has at the moment.

But Copper's park is a little weird, it always is, its still fun to lap, but weird, and I'd recommend going to Breck or Key for park.

Also, don't hate on the jumps having steep landings. I feel that one of the main things copper needs to do is have steeper landings.
