Damnit Josh!! Everytime I'm at spirit. I spun the first big hit at spirit yesterday, hopefully its faster today so I can make the landings. If anyones there they should look for me in green pants purple jacket (maybe snowboarding), cause I'll be alone the better half of the morning

they're easier than they seem. pop, set a little harder than a 360 and... thats about it. commit and youll probably land it first try.

yeah its a little over 40ft to the knuckle. imo one of the best jumps afton has ever made, assuming you can get the speed for it

haha i was gonna say.. i've seen a lot of afton jumps and that one doesn't look any different. looks like you'd never be more than 3 feet off the ground at any point..

go to afton for the rails. always fun :)

It's not.....awfull. It does have more pop then the picture shows. However, you can really only hit it on select days when the snow is softer and you can get enough speed. So yea, come one come all....for the rails :)
