Rails are mad fun and all, but nothing beats a floaty really well built jump where there’s barely a hard impact on landing. Best feeling

Unpopular opinion. You are more likely to hurt yourself on your average park rail than a 70 ft booter in the XL line.

Jumps, but only big natural features, I'm still intimidated by the smallest of park jumps for no reason despite happily airing big natural lips and cat tracks routinely

Jumps for sure. Then I could have a 10 jump sequence that's perfectly dialed in. Every mountain has a rail garden with a few bumps
