[QUOTE="rajobigguy, post: 4748, member: 70"] James give good advice but honestly I wouldn't try to learn how to jump by researching the internet. The best hing you can do is to go to the track and watch how it's being executed, then ride with someone accustomed to making jumps and familiar with that particular track. Don't ride side by side with him initially but rather hang back about 30' and pace him on the approach. Some of the big 2 strokes can launch up a ramp with a very short run up where a 4 stroke might need a little speed on the approach. Like James said , don't try and clear a double on first try, get comfortable just popping up on top of the table without overshooting it. When you're ready to try clearing a single, do it on a single because splitting a double and coming down in the middle of them is a whole different ball game. [/QUOTE]
