Jumping

CrankflipMatt · 2012-04-16, 06:49 PM

Hi,

I'm not that great at jumping, my personal record is just over 30cm.

I still jump with the seat under me. I'm not confident in jumping with the seat in front of me, so, can I have some tips on how to increase my jumping height and ways to improve my confidence jumping with the seat in front of me.

Thanks,
Matt

Pretty impressive, right? I'm a long way from being able to do those deep knee bends.

Thanks for the fix, eh? George Peck has always been a favourite of mine. For when that was shot, tose were some pretty impressive side-hops.

I can do the bends easily enough but balancing like that after each one is pretty insane
