Too much air time!

After this update when skating transition I noticed im catching way too much air even when hitting a very small transition for example the shallow end of the new bowl on the roof, even going at a slower speed im catching like 15ft of air and it doesn't feel natural in the slightest making realistic transition skating more and more difficult,  this problem is persistent across the board with all transition types. I wasn't happy with it during season 1 but it felt tolerable but now it feels like it was turned up to 11.  If I was on a vert ramp than sure I get it thats what they are made for but getting 30 feet of air in an empty swimming pool is insane.

  • Check your settings. They reset after major updates, and with season 2, we got a little more fine tuning with our pump power.

    I've set mine to 0 assist with 70 pump power. It's still a little strong with Semi-Auto pump, so I'll likely play with the tuning this week to see where I like it.

    I messed with the settings (they reset everything, kind of weird) and it feels... Artificial? You had to pump to get air in S1, and it felt a little inconsistent on pumping but better than previous builds. Now it feels like you didn't even have to pump and you get a speed boost at the coping area. Might be a bug on my end, but it feels crazy.

    Start at the bottom and go from there. 0 pump assist, 10 pump power, and turn off Semi-Auto Pump.

    I get what you're saying though. It feels as though the game ignores gravity and the speed buildup you'd naturally get and replaced it with a weird speed boost. I'm hoping they continue to build it out, but I'm not sure if any of the team has ever actually experience real transition skating.
