extend off the lip, and then tuck. Commit to it, then you will be fine...

yep commitment is key. pop off the lip, throw your weight forward, tuck, and stay committed. If you do all that you should be in the clear.

I usually lean extra hard into the tongues of my boots right before the lip so my momentum immediately goes forward.  Just make sure to jump and commit to it and you should have it in no time

what you have to remember is to open your legs a little bit so if you land and havent untucked, you dont smash your face on your knees
