I think a good jumping skill is to be able to do an ollie first. Get powered up, keep the kite at 2 or 10 depending which way you are going, and be able to pop the board off the water without moving the kite. Your loading up the back of the board with pressure and releasing the board into the air....ala ollie. Its the fundamental of a good jump IMO.

All the kite info provided is good, but work on that ollie as well.

Joyride covers jumping in detail.
