looking good so far mate.
it looks though like hes on strings, like hes pretend running through the air or something, maybe that's because you've slowed it down but it looks like hes floating along instead of being propelled forward by is legs.

Two main things that come to mind.
Firstly, the strides as he's running to start with seem way too small, they should be more along the size of the final step, and leave a bit more space between his foot and the board when he does the final step
Secondly, the final jump, I think both feet should come forward to land on the board at the same time as he goes into jump mode, and the board to bend.

oh forgot to ask a question does any one know how i can fix the camera ? for some reason the camera cant view the entire ketchen unless i change the camera settings which i dont like cause it makes the render kinda rounded OR IS THAT GOOD?

sounds like your focal length is what you're tweaking, and unless you are doing a vertigo shot of some sort, I'd leave it alone. Try some dynamic angles of the kitchen, like from down on the floor, or looking from the back of a chair across the table. Take some reference from some sort of furniture gallery website, they'll have some cool camera placement. Hope that's helpful...

i am quiting if i dont get help asap i have already destroyed 10 times my work ok and yes with backup for some reason when i resize lowmax in the scene so that hes close to the size of glu3d because as u know the bigger the sceen the harder to calculate glu3d and because the scene was like 100x bigger than glu3d size i had to resize it but when ever i do so the animation gets destroyed meaning goes wako and for the max file is destoryed and agives me script control and errors flood the sceen and i am sure its low max because i tryed all the objects resized and no problem only when i resize lowmax BY holding his main character node which moves him around the sceen and clicking the short cut for resize and making him smaller at that point no problem but if i save and exit then try to open the file again the file starts that script controller and tons of errors appear (SCRIPT ERRORS THAT IS) SO PLEASE IS THERE A WAY TO RESIZE LOW MAX WITHOUT DESTROYING MY FILE PLEASE I REALLY WANT TO BE IN THIS VFX COMP BUT and when i say i really want to mean that i did the hole scene along with the animation like 5 times or so so pleassee i need this help before deadline

thanks hype but after another 2 hours of searching for the problem its glu3d
but now i dont know what wrong with it once applied to the scene it works but if i dare to close the file and try to reopen then i am down the drain so i think i will quit i tryed like 15 times now and my head is starting to hurt probably wont stay all night MAYBE TOM IS A BETTER DAY thanks again for ur help

are you having to recalculate your entire glu sim every time you open? you shouldn't have to do that. try going into the load/save rollout in the modify panel of the glu emitter and saving the cache as a file. then if it doesn't stay with the file (which it should), you can always reload it that way.
also, the surface usually has to be re-turned on, i've found. not recalculated, just re-turned on.
i don't know if any of this is helpful, though. if the scale of the scene is making the lowmax guy and the glu emitter really out of proportion, i would stay as far away from making bigger glu emitters as possible. it can get REALLY slow at calculating (i'm sure you've already discovered this!).
i even tried going to realflow in my frustration, but it was no faster. water is just difficult, period. if it was easy, everyone would be doing it.
hang in there, man!!

thanks hype but that i already know here is a clear version of what i have problem with.
the problem is from glu3d only
when ever its applied to my scene (and only to this scene) then saved and closed max, when u try to reopen a hole punch of script errors start to appear and max crashes
true water isnt easy at all that why we leave it to the pros such as u and t and others who kick ape in vfx
I REALLY WANTED A TROPHY UNDER MY NAME >< next challange better not be vfx
