this for example should be the minimum performance to qualify, 200feet or longer

this would get the young boys out of the sport and back into the doldrums of des moines where they can rack a new wardrobe

It depends how big. Some cats don't wanna ruin a comp season by blowing their ACLS and ankles if they fuck up on a big dawg

I'd like to see it similar to the skateboard mega ramp with a massive QP after the jump.

I agree and the only people who should participate are The Bunch. I'd love to see them attempt that fake ass ride away when they knuckle a 200ft. gap.

Longer isn't better for tricks though... Kickier is actually far better for the crazy triples and shit people are doing these days.

There's a reason that aerials has a massively kicky jump (~70° lip). Flips your shit real fast.

Look at how many fucking flips that fucker did. Shit, if he was corked up, I bet he could go to quints easy.
