Incorrect world record?
In the notes of the 2023 winners it says that Cooper Cummings sets the record at 13 seconds whenever its been done faster than that in the past (For example Chris Anderson's 11 second run in 2006: https://www.youtube.com/clip/Ugkxdccrmrow58xpr982J7D3FrKrYx9-J8Hd).
I know its stated on the Guinness world record webstie that Cooper has the record but Guiness world records are known to be unreliable Lukeshaun (talk) 02:40, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Ping we can only reprint what is in reliable sources, unfortunately. If sources say that's the record, that's what we print, although I will acknowledge that "world records" are not always the fastest/best/biggest, but they should at least have a method that can ensure the results are reliable.

"...and Wake"?
The article doesn't currently explain what the wake is in this context, does anyone have a source? If not, maybe the article should be renamed. Bizegar (talk) 06:34, 27 May 2025 (UTC)
Slope
The Format section says the hill has a slope of around 50 percent (26.6 degrees), with sources saying '60 degrees at the top, 40 degrees at the bottom' and 'a steep 50 percent grade', whereas the History section says the hill has a one-in-three gradient (18.4 degrees), source not accessible. It seems important to get this right! Can anyone sort it out? Masato.harada (talk) 15:12, 27 May 2025 (UTC)
