Hucking

You're flying down a trail when you come to section with three options to clear a stream that is about fifteen feet wide. You can either:

1) Go straight at it, launch off a root at the edge of the stream which will get you to a small island in the middle of the stream where you could hit a small lip and clear the second half of the stream
2) Carve left and hit a hip to the tranny on the far side
3) Go right and ride a 12" wide ladder bridge that has a lip half way that sends you over a 3 foot gap to downhill ladder bridge tranny. (bridge 4ft above water)
All fast and flowy…but what do you choose and why?

#2 sounds the flowiest to me- I'll take that option
