After 15+ years of watching the worst landing on the track each time this feature is added. Seriously I don't have an engineering degree, but I could construct something better. Honestly what's the reasoning behind it? Convince? Transportation? Cost? Could we adjust the angle? Round the edges? We have seen too many crashes to feel lucky we didn't see any tonight.

Just looking for suggestions

Yeah the landings on those things are always super steep.

The angle is fine if the jump suits it but the edge could be made more forgiving regardless.

It's the progression of the riders trying to save time on the track that makes them dangerous. If they weren't scrubbing the hell out of the lip the landing wouldn't be sketchy it would actually be pretty smooth. Think US Open

The best jump was the one onto the start straighh , i think at A2 last year , you could scrub it or sky it, how do they expect passing if everyone has to land in exactley the same place, honestly.
