Back to the usual crap jumps then.

The problem is 2 fold from what I can make out:

despite my best efforts we don't seem able to come up with a viable alternative to the gym matts which are used. These would probably be acceptable with a plywood racing surface but no-one seems willing to see if the ply we've got can be fitted into the trailer.

It's a remarkably hard task to build a jump that is raceable for all classes running - the 4WD mod's want a jump that can be hit at decent pace, but the 540's need something that can be taken slowly.
