I've seen videos of poorly designed trails. The rider comes to a jump with a fast approach and poor visibility below. Once airborne, you (and the rider) see the trail turns left.
The rider flies through the treeline and over the edge, landing in a field several meters below. Then the four friends behind him each fly through and start landing on each other.
So yeah, they can absolutely see more than what we get on camera, but the designer still needs to avoid traps like that.
