A good exercise which I used to learn manuals( all right I can’t manual) is to do the butt buzz. Take your bike out into the street and hang back until your but just buzzes the wheel.
You’ll be surprised just how far back you can actually get on your bike. It’s also a good foundation for manuals , bunny hops etc.
Whenever I went OTB usually In Rock gardens was because I didn’t commit to my line, late braked, lost my momentum, and the fork dived in a rock hole and over I went.
Keeping the speed up, keeping weight back but still balanced in the bike and staying off those bloody brakes was the best thing for me.
