I don't know, do they practice that stuff before they do it anymore or do they just go over it 1000+ times in computer generated models that take into account everything from speed, wind, humidity, etc....

I would almost think they build and test it vitually and really only do it one time for real but I could be wrong.

I think you are both right. Computers for the ramps, cartoons for the balls to do it, and probably lots of mx hill climbing and descent in order to get the practice?
