Jumpin through
Us Kiwi's are quite seperated from the world 
The question were all asking eachother down here is, How do people do the jumps to highchair etc??
How do you lift your legs so high?
Any tips on all those types of stunts??
we watch shin and az's finest and cant believe it hahahaha
Any input/tips/advise would be great

Re: Jumpin through
im to chicken to try it on a bike but ive but ive put my hands on railings and hoped through the same way to learn so ill try and give an explanation..... the best way to hop through is to put your legs through first, ive seen people try to bend thier legs andjump there whole body through at once, but if you kick ur feet through and then land on the tank its easier, but ive only done it on land so it might b differetn.....also they use dirbike bars, so thier arms are a bit higher than there feet have to be when they go through the bars (assuming the db bars dont have a cross bar) again this was on guard rails on solid ground so the technique might be tweaked

Ben may be right in that learning to go from ss to 50/50, it helps to start by putting your leg through to podium and then plopping down to 50/50. Keep doing this enough and you'll get it down fast and then be confident enough to jump to it.
Tank jumps from a stall involve dropping your *** and jumping as high as you can and sticking your legs through. No magic secret, just jump as high as you can and commit.
And you don't need dirtbike bars for any of this

Re: Jumpin through
its mostly using your arms not your legs to jump. grab a chinup bar, railing, ledge, and see how high you can jump and how much time it buys you to put your leg(s) where you want vs just regular jumping.

Re: Jumpin through
when i was learning it helped me the most to stall then go to podium and just sit down. once you get the idea you can start jumping to 50-50 and clutch out.
once you got that then jumping to highchair is almost the same thing just one more leg. i find it best to jump after i just touched my foot to the ground because it seems to alow me to jump higher and when i jump i try to get my legs as high as possible. also keep the bike as high as possible i found that if you clutch out just before you land in the tank, it looks real clean and is easier to avoid the bog in the f4i if you have one
