How the heck does one even begin to learn this kind of thing? It's not like "half-right" is an option...

I'm thinking longer and longer jumps over time. Then, when the rider is comfortable enough with a really far jump they can try that trick, or maybe slightly less dangerous tricks first.

There's a guy in that sport who is 15 time champ(probably the dude in the clip). That means he's been the most creative 15 years in a row. Basically you have to push yourself to the point of being as creative as that GIF 15 years in a row, and be more spectacular AND more technically sound than anyone else in the world. It's pretty mind-boggling.

Yeah, that is impressive.

I don't know how you build up to it... but you don't want to get it wrong, nope.

First you do that whole jump with flip while holding on entirely. Then you start toe move the legs/body more in mid jump until you get that as the end result.

(I can't find the one I really wanted to show, but it will do).

Until youtube, we didn't hear much about those!
