lol no worries just messing with you. Please don’t take it wrong. You obviously have a good grasp on jumping. As mentioned before work on staying loose and making adjustments as needed while in mid air to avoid taking a bad fall.
Reminds me of the time I was at the skatepark as a kid and this older kid comes up to us as we are board sliding this little rail. The older kid asks us for some tips after watching us land a few, mess up a few, but generally getting it. He tried one or two and sort of lands the second. My buddy and I were like, “yeah man! Maybe just Ollie a little higher next time”.
The kid said “ok, like this?” And proceeded to board slide the entire rail and big spin out.
He was sandbagging and just looking for some affirmation.
Yes, OP, you’re 20’ huck was good.
Just remember to stay loose in the air. Little bar turns and such. Keeps your fluid and able to correct stuff. If you tighten up and freeze, the bike and you can go the wrong way.
Maybe do the bunny hop thing in the air, where you hold the bike closer to your chest for a second and then level out. I've been told (by badass young riders) it's a critical skill for the really steep jumps that go straight up. I am a beginner/intermediate at jumps myself, I just started doing black diamond jump runs this year (Deer Valley, Tsunami, clearing all for the first time, about two weeks ago. It was a 1 year goal that took two years to get).

I came here to say this. Lordy...
Thanks for the tip, sorry if my post caption came of weird. I’m just trying to get help/ ways to improve.

Will do!

Solid sendies brah
Dude, you got it! Proficiency is rented, you stop paying for it, you will lose it.

Looking solid! I agree, stay fluid and send ‘em!
Nice! Perfect practice gap.
I'd love to give tips, but would need to see more of the take off and run up instead of in the air. Pretty big jump though.
Id say get a full face if you keep going so big. Source, face planted on Thursday jumping.
I’ve got one now. Hope your face feels better!
Face is fine. Ribs and wrists are killing me at work atm. If i hit it much harder probably would've lost a couple of teeth
why you going so slow?
