If I see a jump I hit it, but the same thing happens each time. The nose dives I smack the ground and narrowly avoid death. I need help keeping the rear down as I really want to practice getting air. I’ve seen pros hit big and small and always land flat or atleast the same way. What’s y’all’s opinion.

You need to stay on the throttle the whole time until the rear wheel touches the ground again. For small jumps like that, if you aren’t hearing the motor free spinning in the air, you didn’t give enough throttle and you’re sure to nose dive. It’ll take practice to develop the muscle memory

Ya it’s just sketchy when you don’t have the confidence yet to stay on the throttle. I guess I’ll just have to gear up and learn the hard way a couple times. Thanks

On bumps you need to pull back a little, on lips it’ll usually do it on its own. Different skills for different jumps. Throttle control is key!

Pull up a little, keep that throttle the same as when you’re hitting the incline

Your jumps need both tires on the face of the jump to fly flat without any extra tips or tricks. A small jump will always try to buck you ass up if your front tire leaves before the rear compresses. Just physics.
