Hey all, I’ve been trying to learn to ‘pop’ on jumps, have watched millions of videos and it feels like I’m doing everything right. Then I look back at myself and I look like a passenger along for the ride. Anything I’m obviously doing wrong that you guys can identify?

Sorry, I don’t have a critique, but I must know where this is.
Looks like you absorbed the takeoff on the 2nd jump. Can’t see the first too well. Nothing wrong with that but if your goal is to boost, you’d want to delay your jump motion until the rear wheel is a bit higher on the lip
Videos are well and good, but nothing beats having a skills session with someone who knows what they are doing. Looks to me like you have control well enough. Once you get the takeoff, a lot of times there isn’t much to do, so going smooth it tends to look like you might be a passenger, but that also could just be because you set it up well. It’s more physics driving than your bike.
