I have a question for anybody that wants to take a stab at it.
How do you calculate the height and distance you will get off a jump? I know it has to have the speed,height of the ramp,pitch and maybe length. Also what is a good way to figure out pitch? Just something I've always wanted to know. Thanks

Yeah....my fiance is a second grade teacher and she has no clue how to do it either. So she's going to ask the math genius at the school. If I actually get the formula I'll post it on here if there is any intrest.
