Start small and build back up your confidence, also if your going to hit a jump just make a quick decision from first gut instict either yes or no, don't stand looking at it for 10 minutes chewing it over in your head! Everyone has bad days a good days just try not to dwell on the negatives for too long and enjoy the ride Wink

Follow someone into it that has done it a bunch. First time peel off the jump to get a gauge for speed next time follow them again and send it.

Be relaxed, just say "f*ck that shit" and send it

Piss on it to assert your dominance.

Nice. Don't think about it, just go. The more you stand there and think about it, the higher the chances are of you scaring yourself into not doing it.
