Dirt jumping is nice because you get to focus on skills and tricks and amplitude instead of speed and chasing strava times (an app that tracks your speed on a given trail that mountain bikers use). You can go to the dirt jumps at any time, you aren't reliant on lift service and you don't have to pay for a season pass, but you should help out on dig days. It's easy to make friends and feel a part of the community since you are sharing a relatively small space, although plenty of times I have had the jumps to myself. Best of all dirt jumping takes a lot of coordination and bikes aren't as cheap as razor scooters so you don't have to worry about hoards of small children blocking the landings, which is the primary reason I don't go to the skatepark. I highly recommend getting into dirt jumping as your off season sport, it's the closest thing I've found to the feeling I get park skiing.
