[QUOTE="wardy, post: 49731, member: 16710"] If you tighten up you will not be able to correct after you hit, hence you will likely crash. DO NOT tighten up or freeze up that is the worst thing you can do. Do the best you can to suck the bike up if you can to get a few extra feet outa the landing. but if you can't, and you stiffen up, your going for a ride. i have seen countless broken wrists and ankles because of this, as hard as it sounds try to relax and don't "pucker" . try not to throw the bike away either, use it to absorb the hit, now if you are endoing thats another story, get the heck away from the bike if possible. but just coming up short try to adjust the angle and make it deflect the hit as much as you can. better on a smaller set of jumps practice coming up short......then you will be better prepared. just use common sense and dont' get hurt wardy ------------------ "don't wake me.......I am working."
