Help getting over large log

[Nanci]

Until you get comfortable with it, it's probably easier to get a good run at it and go over at a nice speed. You might find one direction easier than the other. Keep arms and legs springy like shock absorbers, but relaxed. Go over and over and over it until you're comfortable- then it will always be fun from then on. Before you even try, walk the jump- make sure all the logs are steady, see what it looks like from the top, plan how you are going to approach it and come down from it. Approach as straight as possible. You can always add to/firm up the ramp logs if you feel it's necessary, too. Those things kind of disintegrate over time.
