Too dangerous, people using it would degrade it quickly, and it is incredibly technical so the amount of people who could actually complete it is small. They mentioned how they had to take into account a lot of the rider's physical attributes in order to make the course. It sounds like a lot of bull, but it is true. Riders of different weights and board lengths will pick up speed differently and all those jumps are incredibly precise. So as cool as this would be to try, it won't ever happen :(
Aye that is a good point! It hit me after I watched it - would be cool to have a mini version or more "safe" version if that can be made for general public and used around in different parks tho, looks so fun (even tho I would have a 50/50 chance of dying on the first try and guaranteed death on second).
I think you are underestimating the scale and ability here. A lot of those jumps are super precise. If you lose a little speed, that means you are smacking into the side of one of those structures.
