I was wondering what everyone's two cents was on all of the stuff (doubles, that big teeter-totter) added to both the DH courses at Beacon. I love some of it, and hate the rest. Just from the last couple weekends of riding up there, I know of people ready to go out there and rip them out, and of people ready to make them bigger.
Despite the fact that I like some/most of them (there are a couple that are really stupid, like the double right at the bottom of the rock roller on the new DH course), are jumps like this feasable on a DH course, especially since DH racers are going to be carrying a lot more speed than somebody just sessioning the jumps having fun? Is this going to be a saftey/insurance thing with regards to the WIM series?
