work on your bunnyhop skills, and it will transfer over to getting air on doubles.

at least thats where i'd start

Yep, work on getting some boost/hop of the lip, and go faster. Going faster will make you go higher and further.

Find or build a good table top, and session it for hours. Its low risk, and easy to learn on.
