Replying to May be a stupid question

Ive been freestyling since last month of last year. When i started i was doin more jumps then rails and doin 180 and 3s

Then i went with skipping all the jumpss and doin the rails.

im starting to get back into jumps and first try i almost landed a 5. i was wondering if ur supposed to pop (jump) or just ride off the jump.
