basic jumping technique

[QUOTE="wannayz, post: 433894, member: 34378"] Now Now.........let me TRY to cool this down. I appreciate the advice from all and the little interplay gave me a chuckle until I realized it was getting a little heated. So what I'm trying to say is looking at it objectively as an outsider, I don't think it's worth making a big deal over it - it's like walking outside with your fly open - you'll be embarrassed to your dying day but the people who saw may chuckle but then foget all about it - no need to internalize it that much because it's really not that important. Speaking of statements, even overstatements - I rode today as hoped and realized the jumps were not 60 degrees but mostly about 40 - 45 degreees and although the jumps were high, some were only about 5 feet and at most 6-8 feet - kind of tough to say!. I approached them a bit more aggresively, definitely standing but still unable to launch and when I did, (maybe), i felt a bit out of control. I did try to compress. I mentioned to a friend that some people get a bit of air even though they are at a snails pace - so I must be at a slug's pace - he says they blip the throttle to get the air but I don't always hear any throttle.
