It’s true. He can’t jump doubles. Ha! But that is ballsy that you tried the big ones at Howell on a day like that! With the rain and the look of that backside, I figured I’d wait till another day.
I don’t know how to explain boosting a set of doubles because you can’t really teach it. When you’re relaxed you’re body will be positioned right and you can use the lip to the max advantage and just boost it. If you’re tense, you just can’t get that boost off the lip you need. You’ll skim one foot above the jump in a dead sailor and come up short. But you can’t force yourself to be relaxed. (kind of an oxymoron isn’t it? Relax Damnit!) It just comes over time. You just have to do it alot to get comfortable with it.
