precision

Scoping it out I had thought about rolling, but when I was in the air I felt it was important to maintain some kind of tuck to clear the low wall which meant I wasn't actually positioned well for a roll. The impact wasn't bad, though- I think I bent pretty far down and put my hands on the ground but felt pretty well in control of it. Since it was a standing jump I didn't have much forward momentum, mostly downward upon landing; I think if I had been running, I would most likely have rolled out of it.

...from a stand that's a pretty long jump; considering also the clearance, and the downward momentum.
How was the impact while landing?
Did the momentum carry you forward?
Did you feel like you had to roll out of it?

Aware of my poor precision jumping ability, I went over it without touching and landed in the big flat area.

Seng, I can't remember... did you indeed precision it?
Went over it?
Or touched it, and carried the momentum over and down?
