I'm so with you! I'll pop off most drops and get small air on the jumps, but ALWAYS take the B-Line around the doubles.I'm with you mate. I tend to be pretty right with most other things, buta decent size gap will send me into seizures. I tend to look at them as significantly bigger than they are and find it hard to estimate the right speed to hit them. Always seem to imagine coming up short. 2 things that help me heaps are a) seeing someone hit it, from a couple of angles, usually brings it back from looking huge to looking quite doable (keeping in mind that anything looks simple and easy when it's done right) and b) It's great if you can find a jump that's too big for you but has no consequences if you don't make the distance. Keep hitting it over and over getting faster till you make it. You then usually find that it's much easier to hit it faster (the scary bit) but land it on the landing and it's way smoother, than hitting things slower(not so scary) but having rougher landings. I guess speed is your friend. Can be a nasty arse friend though when it wants to be..
