How to Jump Off an Obstacle

As you use a half pedal stroke to propel off the edge of the jump, simultaneously lift the front end of your bike by pulling up on your handlebars. How high you lift your bike is dependent on how fast you are going and how big the jump/drop is. For a small obstacle like this rock pile, it will only take a slight upward pull on the bars. Be sure to also have a finger ready on the brakes to control your speed and slow you down after landing.
