Nice job. I've been trying to improve my high jump, too. You are much better than me, though. I think I need to lower my seat or start getting better at SIF jumping, because the seat is hitting me in the butt. Looks like you have your seat much lower than mine, plus you are pre-hopping and folding your body. I haven't been doing very well folding or pre-hopping yet.

I think folding your body makes the biggest difference. I like the hopping tutorial at Relentless by Fate where they say it feels like you're trying to touch your pedal with your free hand.
