What is this, a jump for ants?
It’s hard to judge from the forward perspective of the video. That said it looks like you are using your arms and only your arms, like you are trying to wrestle. This is a common error so don’t feel bad about that. You need to start thinking of your torso as a mass that throw around with your arms and legs and hips. It helps to have your saddle down low like a BMX bike so you can have room to move your hips. By involving your feet and hip displacement you get more time and places of reference to take off about symmetrically
Sky looks beautiful.
Keep hitting it.
Looks like a shit thing to jump, but if you spend your life waiting for the perfect jump, you might as well start road biking.
Young man, first of all. If you’re going to be shredding, you need to put on a helmet. Second, keep going. But practicing some bunny hops in never a bad idea.
Go faster
Get a helmet. Go faster. Start with curbs. Build a small ramp. Keep progressing.
Where’s yo helmet ⛑️ but seriously if you’re not wearing one, which to my squinty eyes it looks like you aren’t, you need to get one asap.
To progress you’ll crash. Don’t be crashing without wearing one properly
Fuck, I could watch kids fall off bikes all day
Jump with your legs, not your arms
The worst part of your technique is the lack of a helmet. This seriously isn’t a sport you want to play with without one. That should be your first priority to fix.
