Rail Jam Setup

Hey NSers, we're setting up a rail jam next week and we have created a few designs on paper. I'm wondering though what kind of setup people prefer. A setup like the campus rail jam out west where you have a one hit with three choices, or if you could have two hits in a row and link the tricks together?

I prefer the one hit. The multi hit method gets pretty chaotic from my experience. Also, the one hit is probably easier to judge.

Multi hit is cooler in my opinion but takes much more resources. I.E speed, snow, rails, set up and take down time.

Single hit with three options is probably preferable because the riders will have choices and be able to hit different features all day. Also easier for the judges.

Here are some pictures of a rail jam that I was just in. Three hits all very different but the jam went off and people were stoked.

Flat down flat and the barrier to drop.
