[QUOTE="TerrorFirma, post: 635301, member: 45022"] I am soooo far from being an expert. However, being a noob and just starting the "hucking-my-body" thing I thought I'd give u my 2Cents. I'm jumping a wood ramp also 9'long & 5' high [I would think jumping anything smaller would be dangerous] into a 4' dirt transition and it'll throw you up and out about 30'. We only have a 30' run to the ramp after going through a little hairpin turn so I'm shifting into 2nd - 2-3ft before the ramp. litely power up the ramp and let off the throttle just close to the top. Look for the landing and cover the rear brake & throttle. I'm sure you've heard or read it 1000 times, if your front ends coming down too fast "pin it" or if the rears sinking too fast tap the back brake. I'm not exactly sure when, but somewhere up the ramp im standing up [cause i'm sitting before the ramp and standing when im in the air]. You're gonna "case" so get used to it. Keep practicing, build up the height and distance when you feel comfortably and try not to "think" too much... it'll screw up the flow. Hope I helped. [/QUOTE]
