I have trouble clearing jumps at the same speed as other riders. My technique must be off, so I took this video of a small jump at relatively low speed to try and work it out. help.

So you see as you pop off the lip you rotate the bike forward and although you’re still in the attack position your center of gravity moves to the rear wheel? You want to keep aggressive with your body position and have your chest/head closer to the stem, at the moment by pulling back and letting the bike rock forward you’re absorbing the pop from the rear wheel. Drive through the jump until the rear wheel has cleared the lip
