  1. Learn how to pump the transitions, will help with speed losses/gains when going up and down quarter pipes

  2. More speed. Pull up with your arms and legs. Work on your entry and pumping your legs. Keep at it.

  3. Faster, and the key is as much in the pump, converting that energy, equally good pressure in your tyres, 65psi minimum

  4. It looks like you’re really stiff, not just coming off the lip but throughout the whole ride. That might be nerves depending on how new you are, or it might just be a bad habit you’ve developed. Either way, you’ve gotta loosen up and let your body go with the flow. As you’re going down and gaining speed, you should relax your arms and let your body weight hang slightly forward. Not so much that you throw yourself over the bars, but enough to let gravity do some of the work of getting you up to speed. Then once you’re coming off the lip of the quarter into the air, tuck your legs up like you would if you were jumping off the ground from your feet, and bend your elbows. The bike wants to go up in the air, but if you’re stiff you’re effectively forcing it not to.

  5. You look incredibly tense going down and up the ramp. Loosen up. You’ll have no bike control if you continue to be that tense. Also, learn to pump. Helps a ton!

    2. WTF are you so stiff? Loosen up, and pump up the transition and pull up.
    3. Keep at it, you’ll get it.
