Why cant more people build jumps like the JOI jump? The JOI jump was built to maximize airtime, and minimize speed and impact. And JOI is constantly a source of evolution of tricks for our sport. I just dont get why terrain parks dont just copy the exact design scaled down. There are so many shitty jumps out there who pay no attention to physics or safety and have a really bad design.
Even at X games they have terrible jump making , how is that even possible? The X games Big air jump from last year was soooo sketchy looking and had a super flat landing. , It ended up injuring sammy carlson, and causing many more sketchy landings.
I know it takes some skill and time to shape jumps correctly, but this is gonna be a HUGE area of improvement in the next 10 years. We are gonna see jumps get a lot more poppy, but with gradual takeoffs and steeper and longer landings that actually match the takeoff.
I think SPT could use a boot up their ass, and honestly I could design way better jumps using basic university physics and an excel spreadsheet . They better come through with a good jump this year, or I am going to send an angry letter.
