Smallest possible takeoff and you want to go 8' high.....how about a 12 degree pitch (angle) about 5' high and at least 14-16' apart should do it at a bare minimum of 12 mph....that sounds about right. No I didnt take the graph paper or the calculator out but Ive been jumpin for a while now and that just sounds about right for that height. you are going to need at least 25' to get going that fast and you better pound on it too!
