There are so many things that can go wrong when hitting newly built mountain bike jumps, too much speed, not enough speed, pulling too much or too little. Surely some calculation is involved when building jumps for events such as @redbull's Rampage and @SamReynolds26 DarkFest series. But you never see riders checking speedometres when rolling in, so how do they do it?
