I like the big pile of hay as an alternative to the foam pit.

im not afraid to jump it.. its just that fat guys arent very areodynamically shaped and dont fly very well

Yes and no. Being "big boned" myself (6'3", 300-ish depending on the number of beers consumed the previous evening), I'd venture to say the coefficient of drag of the average fat dude is actually lower than a skinny dude. The rounder you are, the closer you are to the ideal shape, which is how CD is determined. However, we're at a distinct disadvantage due to the increased frontal area. Luckily we all fall at the same rate, it just hurts a fat guy more due to the increased force exerted upon the ground when we land.

I thought it would be easier because of the Cushion and roll factor.
