Look where you go and the bike will go where you look. Keeping your eyes up and looking ahead helps your body's inner-balance and direction. Looking down makes it harder to balance. Practice this while gliding along with your feet off the ground.
In Oregon in 1966, one Chemeketan club member, D. Gwynn, built a rough terrain trail bicycle. He named it a "mountain bicycle" for its intended place of use.
its also sometimes done to scrub the jump and not pop the lip too hard, trying to keep the bike low and not get sent. But this would be turning the bars as you leave the lip not once in the air.

Why is BMX called BMX?
BMX is an acronym for Bicycle Motocross. A BMX bike is made for off-road racing and trick riding. BMX originated in California in the 1970s. Inspired by motocross riders of the time, people started to race their bikes on dirt tracks.
MTB racers scrub jump lips because it's much faster to continue going forward off a jump than it is to go up off a jump unnecessarily. This allows them to hit the jump faster, stay in a much lower flight path and then back onto the ground sooner with more speed carried through the section.
Whipping is one smooth, arcing motion that starts before you leave the ground. Decide which is your preferred direction to whip in — some riders favour the side of their leading foot and some the opposite. To whip to the left, approach the jump on the right-hand side of the trail.

When riding on soft sand, be sure the bike is at a lower gear. This will reduce the chance of your rear wheel getting stuck in the sand due to the higher torque. It will be frustrating at first but at least you will be moving and staying on the bike.
Cycling exploits the same learning pattern. Unlike walking, the equipment – wheels, pedals, brakes – is manmade but learning and remembering how to use it is exactly the same – and it's the kind of thing we're built to do. So it's neurobiology, as well as great design, that makes it the world's greatest invention.
