My tip to jump, is to jump. I don’t mean that sarcastically. Right now, as you can see, you’re just absorbing the bike. Think of how you’d jump off if you were on your feet with no bike, you’d load and spring off the lip. Do that but don’t wait for your feet to be at the lip, pop when your front wheel is near the lip. There are TONS of videos on youtube that will help you more than a redditor’s comment.

Seems like every other post the last few days is a tips for jumping post. Read the other posts. Some are pretty much doing the exact same thing as you. Advice from the other ones will apply to you. You’re not jumping at all. The bike is leaving the ground, but you’re staying on the same trajectory and basically just letting the bike come up to you while you do nothing.

you’re trying to move your bike up, instead of moving yourself up
