im still having trouble with SIF jumping..

[daveykim]

helllo,
well like the title states, i have been practicing sif riding and jumping for quite some while now and i cant seem to get "comfortable" enough to start doing the static vertical jumps i see people do on videos. i want to get into trials and i know that sif riding and jumping is crucial.
are there any tips or practice things i can do?
i think my seat post is at the right level although my back has to bend a bit. im pretty sure my hands grip is on the right area too.
am i missing something crucial with my arm or legs or something?
when im not sif'ing, i can rolloing jump up 2 stairs and can static jump up about 20 inches.
thanks for all the help!


btw- should i be equally practicint jumpsand tricks on both sides or mainly just dominant?
update- wheel walking is a biotch to improve on!!
