I asked a back if there were any instructional videos on the market, but judging from this forums reaction there arent any

I have searched the internet and come up with something on hip jumps that make sense to me and gives me an idea of how to start practicing

Im posting the links below in case anybody else can profit from them

mbr.com hip jumps

sportskool.com hip jumps

bikeradar.com manualing, boosting and squashing jumps, tabletops and hip jumps

My idea with naming this "The tutorials thread" is my hope that others knowing usefull resources will post them here

This is ain't physics, dude. He does that mediocre (bar turn/lean bike down) table that realistically is pretty ghey.

Agreed, nothing too horribly wrong with those tables. If you're going to criticize, let's see how you do them "proper".

As to your discussion I thought tabletops involved keeping the bike in a forward direction all the time - whereas Mike Smiths tabletops looks a bit like a moto whip with the bike flat in the air

Not really, lots of pros do tables just like that. In fact that style of table was pretty trendy this past year.

^ Yes. It doesn't really fit the table description. More or less it is a whip.
