Jumping

OMG, jumps are my new ???. Manual is still not perfect, but I'm not having hard feelings of it.. but now jumps have started to be problem!

Yesterday I tryed to solve the problem with boys. On track I really wasn't able to do anything. Best practice was to do bunnyhop before small jump (or I would describe it as pump) and land on landing of the pump.

After the practice we went to practice on one small jump outside from track.. Little screaming.. and then I got it! Getting my weight more forward was the key.

Today I read some tips from book (bmx bible = pro bmx skills). Actually I was finishing my beginners manual for bmx racing and I needed some new thinking.. At evening I went to practice. Jumps weren't working that well. Suddenly I remembered tip: when you jump keep your eyes on landing, when you fly look alredy to next obsticle. It sounded crazy to not look at the jump, but I had to try it...

WUHUU, it was awesome!! It really worked.. Everytime I look to landing I got it. Jump was more relaxed. It just happened.. and when you fly you automatically start to look forward. It's worth to read, books :)
