Imo, if you can get away with the noise, 1/8 nitro buggies are awesome for this. They are tough, fly great, and nothing gives as close to the feel of a motocross bike when coming out of a corner and hitting a huge gap. You can even do the traditional 'panic rev' when you are in danger of endoing
. 1/8 ebuggys have more grunt though and can clear the bigger gaps with less of a run.
If you are doing natural hits, a monster truck or truggy is a bit better because the 1/8 buggies like a more prepped surface. However, because of the width, the buggies are better for BMX dirt jumps as they tend to be quite narrow.
What got me into r/c from dirt biking was taking my 1/8 buggy to dirt jumps... Tons of fun!! The BMXers frown at you though.

Here's my best with an E-Revo at a BMX track (after the Savage warm up).
