hello there guys..
I would like to know what are the best transition measurements and the high of the vert? what do you guys like to see when riding a professional Vert?

how about 12 ½ ft tall and 11 ft Transition?

the lg ramp we compete on is like 14' 1" and that's my favorite ramp ever. I think woodward west vert is good too. I think 13' 6"

I like the ramp at Rye airfield. I think it's 13ft maybe an 11ft transition. I think it's designed more like a skateboarder ramp, but I prefer it.

I think the ramp at Rye its a pretty decent ramp but a little bit old.. the new transitions of the latest vert ramps are way more stable when it comes to tactics and learning new tricks..

I just prefer that style transition, big tranny not a ton of vert, maybe it's because my pump isn't quite right. The Vert at cloud 9 bothers me a lot.

As much as it pains me to admit it, most ramps aren't equal. I loved vans/modern skatepark's vert ramp. 14ft high, 12ft transition. If you could air there, you could air anywhere...or was it the other way around? I dunno, but when you're first starting out, it messes with your head if you're one of the fortunate few to have two vert ramps each within an hour from each other. Anyways, switching ramps messes with your technique. The other vert ramp is at landslide. I don't know the specs but it feels like you just ride the transition and boom you're in the air. I wanna say short transition combined with very little vert.
