Oh, and you use a winter set up but old stuff. I use old boots and delamed park skis. Landing on water is surprising harsh on skis. I use old boots because being always so wet makes them stink and wears pretty hard on the liners. You wear a wetsuit, a helmet and a life jacket. In Japan, most people but ski pants or board shorts over the wetsuit.

There are quite a few around these days.

Goryu has a more of a park type of jump set up.

Sanosaka is more of a mogul type set-up (steeper jump)

The pro mogul guys and girls train at sanosaka.

I suppose I should have phrased the question a bit more clearly for the mentally challenged like Muikabochi.

 

Why would one want to hit artificial jumps when the real ones are still open? I was curious as to whether he wanted to do potentially dangerous stunts like inverts or something and therefore asked the question.
