The feeling of hitting and nailing any jump for the first time is suach an awsome feeling

For me once i decided that i was the one jumping and the bike was secondary to my body position is when i gained the confidence to hit the big jumps. There's an infinite number of ways you and your bike can get thrown foreward, backwards and sideways. Need to want the air and know that you can get kicked and correct naturally with ease and then your ready for great advice on this video for big air. Pushing distances with amazing form and perfect jumps is going to put you in the hospital. You need small jumps. Lean back, lean forward, seat bounce, last minute full throttle to make the jump, imperfect jump faces that throw you - you need lots of dirty air to learn all the ways to correct everything. Put in the time until it's impossible to worry about nose up or down and then your ready for a long career of hitting huge jumps and the conversation of endowing or looping out won't even make sence to you.

some really solid advice, everyones always so focused on hitting the bigger jumps but the most important part is understanding your bike, on smaller jumps so you can progress to bigger ones and getting better style and comfortability on your bike in the mean time

I'd love to see a video about how to do hit jumps from the seated position. Not necessarily a seat bounce, but just taking off the lip while sitting. I have a fear that if I sit on a takeoff, the bike will get kicked and launch me off; so I end up just standing on every ramp I encounter, which I feel is limiting me.

You don't need a vidoe for that. The whole sport is about the balance and finding your place on the bike to keep it always in neutral. To gain this You have to find the jump with the ramp that is comfortable for You and jump it with different gas and body position until You start feeling how your actions affect the jump. The main hint on the seated jumps is actually to stay on the gas until the rear wheel is in the air. The rest of it You will find by yourself. When You get confident with it You may go on to more complicated ramps.

Guess i need to know is what gears to use, how much gas to give, when do i let go off the throttle as I'm launching going up or after I launch?

too low a gear and you will run out of needed power to get drive/keep the bike level and it may endo. too tall a gear and it could bog or lack drive and again maybe kick up the rear and endo. its best to be driving/accelerating all the way to the jump. if the run-up is too long it will confuse the learning process. how much throttle depends on the slope before the jump, how soft or packed the soil is and how big the jump is. there is no way to say how much throttle. but half should keep you safe. easiest way to jump is to let off the gas briefly just before you get to the jump face, get on the gas all the way up the face, then chop the throttle (let go) just before the rear wheel leaves the top of the jump. this helps keep the bike level in the air. leaving the gas on all the way is an advanced technique and requires more aggressive body positioning and brake control.

Only sit when you are attempting to seat bounce. Stay on the seat until your rear wheel leaves the jump. This will compress the suspension and give you more height. But, that technique is for mostly jumping while exiting a corner. On a straight away, get off the seat. Good luck

For me sitting on first attempt helps because I personally get more controlled distance. I don't really seat bounce but it stops me from soaking up or over jumping.

Do you have any advice on getting the bike back straight again for the landing if it whips out
@andrey0770
10 ай бұрын
there is no advice for that. The most important is that You have to be neutrally balanced in the air so that when You land it does not affect You so much untill the bike is totally turned sideways. On the landing You MUST have a trottle open may be not even wide. You can correct the bike with the handlebars, pegs or your body but that will help only untill the criticall angles. To avoid this effect You have to stay on the gas until your rear wheel leaves the ramp and keep the bike hard with your legs on the jums that You suppose to be kicking sideways. Easy to say hard to implement. You need years of experience to handle this.
