that is the question. i am making a new drop in for my setup. i have plenty of turf for the transition bottom section and jump but i am debating going with msnow instead of turf. only problem being, it ups the cost by 90 dollars. is the msnow worth the 90 dollars? will it up my speed and quality of my setup that much?
what should i do ns?

If you can afford it I'd go with msnow. I haven't heard many bad things about msnow and it is supposed to be pretty durable. Better with msnow wax. I currently have turf and wetting and soaping gets really annoying, and the speed is not all that great. Turf is quick to roll out, msnow has to be screwed down to something.

You only need around a 4 foot drop in with m-snow, in fact the standard 6 foot ramp that's recommended for turf setups ends up being waaaay too fast if you have m-snow.

the msnow wouldnt be for the droppin i am using horizontally mounted pvc since i have an excess of it and its fast as hell
the m-snow would be for the transition and jump so it is really for maintaining speed and less for the gaining of it
