Thanks for the advise all.
Step 1) I'm going to practice touching my stomach to the seat. I'll try as i ride along flat ground until i get used to it. I haven't really tried making myself get used to it. I also need to get a grasp on whether i am having trouble physically getting back there, due to the bike geometry.
Step 2) If i can't physically get back there i'm going to have to make some sort of physical change to my bike. The position of the seat, or change the length of my stem.
Step 3) I need to focus on my braking habits on descents. I think i tend to use both brakes all the time. I'm going to stop using the front brake entirely while getting used to the descents.
Step 4) Getting a higher travel fork. I was planning on getting an adjustable fork with more travel anyways.
