Second day jumping on the new bike and having a blast. Video angle isn’t great, but I’m pretty certain my approach and takeoff are what need work and I’ve 3 hits together for some advice. I feel like the years of 20” wheels at concrete skateparks gave me some habits that don’t translate to the big wheels, suspension, and less aggressive lip. Pretty sure I am taking off leaning too far back and getting the front end down for the landing transition feels awkward. Stands to mention that I stood up to the jump on like my second go, blew my feet off and took a seat to the gooch. I may be overcompensating to avoid loosing my pedals again.
Any suggestions?

Looks great bro. if you’re a bmx guy you’re probably way better at jumping and bike control than most mtb riders out of the gate. Just gotta get used to the bigger bike.
