Crabapple Hits. By far the biggest jumps I've hit, but I don't even know how big they are. Some people guess the biggest one is 60 ft. but I'm guessing more like 50 ft. Does anyone have an official length on the jumps?

Sven should know. Does it really matter as long as they flow? Last time that I was there they were in the forty foot range. They've gotten bigger since. I seem to recall an empty ski slope just along side. Let's build Crabapple Fest!

All that length and still just a few very brief seconds of hang time. Impressive that the best in the world can get it so sideways and straighten it back out in that amount of time. 45 to 50-ish sounds about right for the largest one.

They feel so much bigger than the 40 footer on A line for some reason...
