Most courses are designed so that you naturally get a good speed when you hit a ramp. So just going full throttle will usually give you pretty good landings. But you also see the landing ramp before you get to the jump, either on the previous jump or when going around the corner leading up to the jump. So you have an idea about how the landing looks as you approach the jump. And thirdly there is some room to manoeuvre in the air. By using the throttle and the brake in the air you can rotate the bike around. And you can also shift your body weight around to move the bike. You can do this to make adjustments allowing you to land shorter or longer once you see the landing.
