From our huge collection of free training vids at http://crosstrainingenduro.com Learning to jump a dirt bike involves both minimizing and maximizing air time depending on the terrain and obstacles. Cross training involves trials and enduro techniques for jumping dirt bikes to get your enduro skills to the next level. A huge thanks to Australia's 2014 Junior Endurocross champion, Ruben Chadwick, for helping out with this enduro cross training series.

It's an easy skill to master, but you can get into a lot of trouble if you bite off more than you can chew. Your body position should be relaxed when doing jumps. WHICH WHEEL SHOULD LAND FIRST? The growing interest in extreme enduro led to an upsurge in trials riding riding internationally, and many dirt riders are now joining trials clubs to improve their overall technique for basic dirt riding or hard enduro. When learning, you want to either have both wheels landing at the same time, or the rear wheel just before the front. Jumps are fun. They are so much fun that often we subconsciously learn how to get extra lift just for the thrill of it. However, serious dirt skills aim to keep your air time to a minimum. So how do we keep the speed up but the air time to a minimum? This can go a long way to maintaining speed but making sure you aren't launching into orbit. Throttle control is important too with jumps. PRELOADING - MAXIMIZING YOUR AIR TIME Now it's time to do the opposite! There can be times you deliberately want to jump higher or further, if it means you can clear an obstacle, gap or rough terrain after the take off point.
