Question
I'm a flyer and a jumper and i would like to know how to keep my arms folded intead of wacking my friends noses! and how to jump and know they'll catch me? I'm ne at this and i need advice on folding my arms and jumping perfectly.

Answer
hey,

  The answer to your first question is easy..well It'll take practice but i'm sure your friends will forgive you if you bonk them. When you are fulling/cradling down from a stunt you have to make sure you stay tight, and help your body learn when to catch yourself on them...you wont hit them if you make sure you're not being a loosey goosey. For the jumping part, the answer to that is also staying tight..the tighter you are the higher and better it looks!
