On the second hit I did a lil thing with the back wheel but I don’t think it really accomplished what I wanted

Haha I could feel this video in my chest. Try to bring your knees in to give you some reach when trying to find the landing. You are kind of ridged and having the ability to find the landing rather than aim for it would be best.

Keep a loose grip on the handlebars, don’t squeeze them like you’re holding on for dear life. Relaxing your arms and shoulders gives you better control and flow. Once I figured this out, my jumps became smoother and more controlled, and my overall technique improved drastically.

Being more active in the air and “playing” with the bike tends to help me a lot. I can’t whip or anything, but throwing a mini table or slight bar turn helps me stay in control and fluid in the air.

Keep a loose grip on the handle bars and let your arms move with the bike, i.e. don’t keep your arms locked out or stiff

Your pop is too early. You are essentially extending off the lip and flying through the air stiff. Go through vid frame by frame, you will see that you are fully extended already as your rear wheel is still on the ramp.
It takes time to learn the correct timing as well as correct body lean for a given ramp, but overall you should aim to make your push faster and more explosive. This means that you can time it a lot better. A good jump is when you push all the way through with the rear wheel, shooting your body in the air. The bike should feel weightless if done correctly.
