    Look I'm no expert but he's not compressing the suspension so no to seat bounce.

    IMHO its powering all to way off the top to get launch each time, then momentum and beautiful throttle control/timing?

    Because of lack of momentum (out of the corner) he can only make the first jump a double.
    After the first double he only accelerates from about the dip or the face of the jump to get him to the quad launch.
    On the quad one he powers right from the landing through dip and up off the top!

    Jeepers he makes it look easy! lovely to watch!

    For most of us thats about 9 little hills

    I try and get the momentum, but as I accelerate , I get wheel spin or something else and not enough drive , for even one of those , let along 4 ,

    Then we add in the big kahunas , of which I am in short supply of .....

    They do make it look so easy

    The 100k upgrade to suspension can assist a little.. I seen JS hitting a few jumps during the season that no one else will hit or if they do it maybe just once or twice a race. Have you seen him do Laroccos Leap on a 125? The guy is nuts.
