Don't give up, your jumping style looks good to me. You just need a good frame. Something like an azonic, kona, norco or any other cheap tiawan frame is just not going to cut it for that kind of jumping/abuse.

Get something made of cromo that will bend before it snaps or an over built aluminum hardtail frame with big gussets around the headtube area and you will be fine.

Fark chris that is such a bummer, hope you are alright. Don't give the sport up dude, you have too much talent to just throw it all away.
