    Thanks for all your guy's help on my last questions. The answers were
    more than helpful.
    I was looking for tips on jumping and hopping. I'm on a 20' and I can't
    seem to get any height out of my jumps. I've inflated the tire well
    enough but I can't get the motion to jump any higher than one stair at a
    time. On top of this, I was wondering how you get any distance out of
    your jumps. I suppose you must be moving in order to get max distance,
    but is there something I'm just not getting?
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm only wearing black 'till they come out with something darker.

    Enough practice?

    It really is WYSIWYG (what u see is what u get), watch some uni vids and
    practice and if that doesn't work, you're not practicing enough.

    Except, what does "inflate the tyre well enough" mean? You want it to be
    a bit soft and bouncy for hopping.
