GO NINA!!!! dropping the clutch always worked for me as well as giving it gas and pulling back........I agree that someone said to start with little bits of jumps or bumps (I used the side lip of the driveway, from driveway to grass, just to get a little air) and get the feel of how much to pull back,,,,it hurts when ya go over backwards!! ( got bucked off my horse the other day,,,not sure which one hurts more, quad or horse, but they still both hurt). Make sure you got your safety gear on,,,your daughter wants you in one piece and so do we!!! Cant wait to see the vids!!!
