# Jump Kicker Design is a specialized MCP. AI Agent Connect

> Jump Kicker Design gives your AI client the physics engine it needs to engineer snow jumps. It handles the heavy lifting of projectile motion, from calculating takeoff angles and transition radii to checking if a landing slope is safe for a specific trajectory. You can even adjust your designs for different snow conditions like powder or ice.

## Description

Designing a snow jump isn't just about digging a hole in the snow. If the transition radius is off or the takeoff angle doesn't match the landing slope, the results are dangerous. This MCP connects your AI agent to precise geometric and physical calculations required for snow sports engineering. 

You can use it to define the exact dimensions of a kicker based on how far and high you want to fly. It doesn't just stop at the takeoff; it validates the entire flight path to ensure you hit the landing slope at a safe angle. Because snow conditions change constantly, the MCP lets you tweak your geometry to account for how much traction you'll actually have on powder versus hardpack. It also keeps your designs within safe limits by checking skill-specific constraints like minimum radii and maximum angles. Instead of guessing, you use physics to build jumps that work.

## Tools

### adjust_for_snow_friction
This tool modifies your kicker geometry to account for how much traction you'll have in different snow conditions.

### calculate_kicker_geometry
This tool generates the primary physical dimensions for a kicker based on your desired flight distance and height.

### get_skill_constraints
This tool retrieves the allowable physical parameters, such as minimum radius and maximum angle, for a specific skill level.

### validate_landing_safety
This tool checks if your designed kicker trajectory will result in a safe impact with the landing slope.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Design a jump that goes 15 meters far and 4 meters high for an intermediate rider in hardpack snow.
```

**Response:** 
```
The optimal kicker angle is 32 degrees, with a kicker length of 8.5 meters, a transition radius of 6.2 meters, and a lip height of 1.8 meters.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a takeoff angle of 35 degrees safe for a 25 degree landing slope at 12 m/s?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, the landing is safe. The impact angle difference is 2.5 degrees, providing a high safety margin.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What are the safety constraints for a pro rider?
```

**Response:** 
```
For a pro rider, the minimum transition radius is 3.5 meters and the maximum kicker angle is 45 degrees.
```

## Capabilities

### Geometry Calculation
Your agent uses this to find the exact takeoff angle and lip height needed for a specific jump.

### Landing Validation
The AI checks your flight path against the landing slope to prevent dangerous impacts.

### Snow Condition Adjustment
Your agent modifies designs to account for the traction differences between powder and ice.

### Skill Level Guardrails
The AI pulls specific radius and angle limits to ensure a jump matches a rider's ability.

## Use Cases

### New Jump Construction
Define a target distance and height to get a full list of physical dimensions for a new kicker.

### Safety Auditing
Verify if a planned takeoff angle will result in a safe landing on a specific slope.

### Skill-Specific Design
Ensure a jump is appropriate for a beginner or pro by checking skill-based constraints.

### Weather Adaptation
Update a jump design when snow conditions change from hardpack to powder.

## Benefits

- Calculates takeoff angles and transition radii using projectile motion math.
- Prevents accidents by checking trajectory impact against landing slopes.
- Adapts jump dimensions for varying snow textures like powder or ice.
- Enforces safety limits based on rider skill levels.

## How It Works

You connect the MCP to your AI client and start running physics-based design queries.

1. Connect your AI client to the Jump Kicker Design MCP via Vinkius.
2. Tell your agent the target jump distance, height, and rider skill level.
3. The agent uses the tools to calculate geometry and check safety constraints.
4. Review the resulting dimensions and landing safety data provided by your agent.
