i am a good snowboarder and all that but i have one problem. When i attempt big jumps i seem to slow down because i lose confidence in my self. But when they are small i seem to do well on them.
Could somebody please help me out with this one?
How could i gain more confidence?

Try going faster on the little jumps, and faster still on the big ones. Having friends around always helps me. They never let you hear the end of it.

Thx that is one thing i tried lately but i tell my self i going to hit the jump but in the end i end up slowing down.
But its true about having friends around you, because you just want to show them how good you are or even keep up with them.

I was told by an instructor when approaching a jump "You either go into it comfortable and end it dangerous, or go in uncomfortable and end it safe"
You may feel safer with a slower approach speed but you won't have the speed to clear the knuckle or land on the tranny properly. If you go in faster slightly outside your comfort speed you get better clearance off the jump and land better. Plus you won't have to force a giant ollie to make up the distance.

Just keep at it. as you gain confidence in your own ability, the speed and height of your jumps will naturally increase. For now, just keep pushing the envelope a little bit and hit the jumps you are comfortable on a little bigger and faster. This will halp you on the bigger ones.

when you want to try to do a big jump its important that you keep your speed because if you dont then your landing might end up being short and then you will wreck your knee and that doesnt feel good and most important DONT LOSE CONFIDENCE IN YOURSELF!!!!!! its okay if you fall just keep trying you will get better
