[QUOTE="Jeff Gilbert, post: 50213, member: 20280"] Depending on what type of jump, you need to be standing in the attack position (most likely), elbows up, back slightly arched, knees bent, keep your wrist parallel(sp) with your arms, grip the bike with your knees and ankles and hold a consistant throttle till you are airborn. You can manipulate the bike in the air with your body and if the front is too low gas it, if the front is too hi pull in the clutch and tap the rear brake. Get back on the gas when you land so you are not thrown over the bars, a body in motion tends to stay in motion even if the bike doesn't. It's ok to land slightly on the front wheel 1st as long as your back on the gas but be prepared when you get traction, it can pull you off the back if your not ready. Good luck and I hope my description didn't bore you. ------------------ "Nature Boy" [/QUOTE]
