Coach me up, here’s 3 jumps. Obviously felt much bigger than they look. How’s my mechanics? Do they look like I can slowly start to scale up? Feel free to be picky. Love the feedback.
At some point you can pick apart things a lot but you basically look fine. Keeping the rear wheel down on the takeoff and getting the bike leveled out for landing = doing quite well.
Whether you go bigger or not is up to you but practicing on the largest variety of jumps you can find is really valuable. A jump that big but with a steeper lip will be more intimidating at first but not technically any harder, for instance.
I found it valuable and still find it valuable to try to clear jumps at differing speeds as well but basically repetition is your friend.
