    I think "a lot" better might be pushing it ever so slightly.

    Some of the steeper pitches of the Beckton Alps are probably a fair comparison.

    I have seen video of folks riding them, they even have races on that stuff. Never tried it, looks like a good rug burn if you fall.

    Do the jumpers use something similar?

    The chair 6 debris brings a tear to my eye. It looks so serene when you're coming up Forest Queen, but by the time you hit the top it's clear something is wrong. Hurts bad.
