you gotta land leaning back with both sticks and scrub the farther down the hill the harder it is to land...  is your susp. all soft?

Used to happen to me too, and I really don't know what to tell you to do. Just lap after lap and time spent on the bike resolved not only this problem, but many others too.

its called not jumping as far. let off the gas going up the face of the jump.

If you are talking about the jump downhill that you have to land on the hill?  just put both tires on the ground. if you are talking about the next  jump like zenman said, it takes time to know how fast you are going and the sound of your bike. just race

I would guess you're talking about the one that's NOT the finish line one. It's really steep with a little secondary landing as you come out of an elevated area with trees and rocks around. My trick is to stay to the right on the take off and land more so to the right side. You almost have to clip the tree branch sticking out.              That and back off the throttle some and only get about halfway down.

i never let off all the way and just scrub the crap out of it. and try not to lean back right as you land. sometimes i do and the back end will wash out
