[QUOTE="Reeko, post: 108595, member: 16284"] Do not push down on the forks. This could cause you to jerk back on the bars on launch or make the front end rebound more than the rear causing a nose high jump. (I have done this before.) To compress your suspension you should be using your legs and body to compress through the footpegs. This will cause the front and back to compress equally for a more level launch. You can practice compressing through your legs as you ride to get the feel for it. It is important that you time the compression. Depending on the jump, I try to basically add to the natural compression as the bike compresses into the jump face. When you do it right, man do you float. [/QUOTE]
