Lower your seat as much as you can. If you want to get extreme, you
can even cut off some seat post so that you can raise the uni that much
more.

And most importantly... PRACTICE

Practice, thats the key. And have variable goals to head for. Once you
can do it, its a very strange feeling to be hopping as high as you do. I
can crankgrab the end of an average picnic table, and that's plenty high
enough for me. The issue I have now is trying to work out if my cranks
are going to be in the right place for a rolling hop. I'd like to
spontaneously do some lines without having to dismount, set up, roll
back, mount & go for it.

Loose.
