So i started hitting table top jumps today. They were about 5 feet long. It was pretty exciting, and super frustrating. I thought it would be easy cheese to start hitting jumps and adding in some spins. I can do 180's/360's on the flats. I just can't seem to link the jump and a spin. I was having a little bit of trouble even getting a good jump off. I felt weird in the air. I've watched snow-wolfs video on jumping and i think I'm doing everything he suggested. Anyone have any tricks to building up confidence with jumps?
