How do motor cross riders know how fast to hit a ramp/jump to land safely on the downramp?

Like, how do they figure out how to not overshoot or case it? Was just watching a guy hit a heap of jumps in an arena and he got every single landing perfect.

The exact same way any other type of event requiring precision works. Experience. You don’t come hit the advanced ramps right off the streets, you practice for years to get to that point. They know what speed / gear / angle to hit the ramp because they have hit similar ramps hundreds or thousands of times.
