I wanna start jumping :)
I don't really have any Experiences at all on track..
I ride a Yamaha YZ250F 2007M.

i got the BS basics down (well i think i do, like being in attack positing and stuff)

about 5 weeks ago i was at my local riding place and i was talking to this dude about going over this jump, we both worked it out that the dirt ramp was the same as a kicker, anyway i took me about 15 attempts to even hit it, this was my first jump like this, i was in third gear, not to much rev's , got to the bottom of them ramp and gave it a bit more, to about half or just a bit more, then lift off! i was in the air, i landed it, but i nearly nose dived but saved it, i did this about 3 more times and only 1 was perfect!, I wanna keep doing this. and hopfully on day throw in some tricks :D:D. i have not done it again in a while..

i pretty much need to do again and again to i know im confident in doing it,

any ideas boys??

anyone in Cairns that could even give me a One on One Lesson?? haha that would be unreal!

well your not gonna be a mad dog jumper straight up. start small make sure you have all the tecniques perfect, but if you were going nose down sounds like you were chopping the throttle, wont work on a 4 stroke. keep the throttle smooth and steady the whole run up until you have left the ramp. someone stated it before it is easier to bring nose down than arse down.

goodluckk man
