Yeah it might be my tire not being pumped up enough but thought to post here for some recommendations
Needed to cutout 15s of unneeded video that's why editing watermark
How's my first attempt at clearing a jump? Any improvements on how to not fall

I think the middle of the video is pretty needed
Don’t land on the side of a hill?
My man, you ran into the side of that huge mound where the landing is. That’s all
Looks like a hip. It’s a jump designed for you to turn right in the air. Instead you went straight and crashed into a hill.
Lmao you just rode straight into a hill that’s why you fell over, not tyre pressure. Maybe approach it from a different angle or just don’t ride into the side of a hill?
Object fixation, if you’re not focusing on the wall you are most likely to avoid it.
It works for the ground, trees, roots and rocks, cars, people, handrails, light posts, animals, etc… not that I have ever run in to any of those things… ……🤦♂️
You need to try on an easier jump.
This is a hip, where you are supposed to land at a different angle to takeoff. It’s not a beginner technique.
looks like you jumped, crossed through a glitch in the space-time continuum and reappeared in the side of a hill. Avoid doing that.
Yeah use your hands to guide the bike and tweak it right and use your feet/heels to steer the rear wheel into the hip so you land rolling down it.
I recommend finding smaller hip jumps to get the feel of it down before going back to the bigger one. Side note… I think hip jumps are the most fun.
Was this filmed on cctv?
See those little jumps there? Jump those and learn how to jump proper then hit the hip.
Why did you do it like this?
Bro you jumped into the side wall

Put a fuckin seizure warning
Perfect execution. No notes.
Practice on a smaller jump with a straight lip and landing. It looks like your jump is actually meant to be a hip: a jump where you land at an angle to the takeoff.
Don’t you dare blame the bike for this.
You crashed because you weren’t mentally prepared to clear the jump and not eat dirt so when you actually cleared it you didn’t know what to do with yourself is how I see it. If you are gonna send something, you need to fully commit and believe you will do it.
Not falling is the best way to not fall. You’re welcome.
Perfect😆
I wouldn’t change a thing!
