Loose some weight? Kick his bike just before you launch off of the jump and that should take care of his air time.

All kidding aside, are they the same bike. A few pounds makes a big difference so compare the weight of your bike against his.

unless you have tires that give traction in air. air time isn't what you are looking for. if you want to turn fast laps get back down to good ol' terra firma as soon as you can. Much better chance of hooking up and decreasing your lap time.

Just a grey haired old farts . oh BTW I used to ride so I do know what I am talking 'bout.
