Jamie_Trials Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 The main things to get your body weight right, leaning in slowly towards the gap will ensure you aren't gonna flip out or misjudge your landing. Then you've gotta get your power, just like a side hop but not going upwards as much as you leaned earlier to get the right momentum. Getting the maximum bounce from tires helps too by pinching the edge of what you're going from. One thing to mention, make sure your wheel are built strong, it can cause a lot of strain on your wheels if you mess up on your landing.
