pushing the bike forward when jumping

[QUOTE="jim7411, post: 776552, member: 48850"] Thanks for making the pictures. I appreciate that. I ride an '02 YZ250F. I'm sure I do exactly what you are saying. I come up to the jump pretty hard (for me) then I ease up and just keep the throttle steady on the take off ramp. These are about 30' table tops. I have cleared them before, but I usually land at about 25'. I need to accelerate up the ramp, so I don't slow down on the upslope like your saying. I ride too conservative. I'm usually doing more "hoping" over jumps then really accelerating and jumping them. I guess it's like you have all said, I need to go harder at it. It's all in my approach speed. When I do occasionaly hit it hard enough to clear it the bike lands so sweet. I just nearvous about getting out of control when I come at it hard. Thanks for the help. I'll make myself accelerate up the face more and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
