If I rmemeber it right, I had to take care of my body center. It shouldnt go back where it tends to do, otherwise you fall back obviously. The front leg has to go up at the same time as the back leg goes down, and the front leg should still touch the front part of skateboard. I usually did it only when standing or riding slowly. I was also too worried to try the jump even on place where there were only 2 stairs The worst is when the skateboard slides front and you end up on your back. Happened to me few times, and once I almost lost my breath (can happen aftter hitting hard on back).
