Nice recovery. It seemed really nose heavy, wonder why being the engine is in the rear?

Where did you find the pict of the Dragon Fire Commander ? Was it on a web site or did you see it in person ?

When jumping on the shorter take off ramps there is lots of pre-load in the rear end, the rebound kicks the ass end up faster then you would expect......
a ramp long enough for the shocks to reach full rebound before you take off is ideal, stay on the gas hard right up to the point you leave the ground and it will help keep the nose up.

Ok, that makes since. I will definitely keep that in mind while approaching short jumps in the Commander. I don't want that to happen to me. If the effect is that bad on a rear engine UTV it would probably only be worse on a mid engine like the Commander.

Allot can be done with shock tuning, FJK and 4Nines are both good shock tuning guys

the bad thing about those radius cages is that if you do flip over forwards, the round cage keeps you rolling.
With no rear bed or bumper to catch and stop, you could flip several times instead of once.
