Jump Day

First 9 step approach day of season. Went ok. Had to relearn how much technique matters and translates to feet onto your jump, especially when speeds pick up. I felt like I was just flailing being blasted out of a canon. My body started to remember my technique. My best for the day was 49' 6".

Another thing that kinda messed things up was my runway. I was so focused on hitting the board from 9 steps that I sacrificed real speed and posture coming into my takeoff. I should have been just when I felt right and not worrying so much about distances jumped, especially on my first day. I guess I got excited. 

Video and notes with comments will be uploaded soon.
