Mind the gap!

It's a nine foot gap/drop! So here we are back again this time with www.pbase.com/mcgarva my son is away on holidays in the US. Fourth year on the trot & every year I marvel at their skill but question their sanity!
When you see the jump from behind you get impression of what they are doing.
I tried panning this but with difficulty as there is very little lead in time.

Brilliant shot, I think your panning has worked very well. They all must have just a touch of madness to do this!!
