she looks like she has a great jump, it sounds like you are slightly behind the movement, but we would need to see a vid of you jumping her to be sure.

it may be she is not coming into the jump forward enough - a few times there she put in a short one and if she is not forward and jumping out of a rhythm it will be uncomfortable.
Get someone to lunge you over jumps on her when you have no reins and see how you need to change your position and the way she approaches the jump in order to stop it happening.the best saddle inh the world wont help if the rider and horse are not approaching correctly. you do get used to it- I had one who felt like his back end was way above your head and he fired you forward - I soon learnt to have a very stable lower leg as a fulcrum to stop myself going between his ears!
