Trick is to focus on the barrier after the one you are going through.

Yea, its just like ski racing...always looking at least 1 gate ahead. Usually serves you well, until you hook a gate doing 45 mph and blow out
As for the Star Wars reference...my first thought 3 seconds in was "that was too close!" Where is Snyb Snub (Sp?) when I need him?
