IMBA says (http://www.imba.com/resources/trail_building/build_freeride_park.html): The distance between the landing of one jump and takeoff of the next should be about 22-26 feet.
If im aiming for 4' jumps with a jump radius of 8', a gap of about 10' (is that too short?) and a landing radius of 15' (a total of about 27 feet at ground level from start of transition to bottom of landing), does the above mentioned distances seem reasonable?
I have heard that the space between jumps ought to be rounded and that flat sections dont work. I have never ridden a line where the connecting areas are rounded, but it seem to be an awful lot of digging if the distance is about 22-26 feet.
What do you think?
