Upshift when you seatbounce.

Sim is about 85% technique , 15% suspension. When you figure out the game, even a pogo stick suspension is somewhat rideable. Just keep practicing.

Before you land on the table top, hold the clutch to build up the revs. If your back wheel keeps clipping the jump after the tabletop, you can also hit the rear and front brakes to make the bike rock forward in the air.

Agreed. The 250 is so momentum based too it's probably just not enough speed carried.
