That was me.
Take it off the net? No way! Its awsome :D I walked away with no injuries and a better than average time even though I had two offs in my run.
oh and i think there was definately a couple of 06 Demos there. A few more clicks on the rebound....or get my tired lasy ass off the seat, both would have worked.

bullshit, the whole jump has completely changed... before it was soooo sooo much better... like a decent jump in a dh track for once, and it was hard. Anyone can do this jump.. hunk of crap!! absolute bullsh#t they should have kept the way it was before, if u couldnt do it.. just punch the b line.. if u could.. then u could.. n then ppl that wanted to do it.. but couldnt would crash n be awesome spectator friendly.

Originally the jump was a double, but for reasons (safety?) it was not included in the last few rounds last year. Now they have changed it so its a step down with no gap (so basically it's easy) compared to a tricky double.
The reasons are that it's safer and it's more fun than going around it. If someone came up short or overshot the double they'd get f**ked, and there is no way that it would be insurable.

Judging by the five or ten people that actually cleared it, i'm glad they changed it into a tabletop.
