U.S. Navy Petty Officer Second Class Taylor Gallant, 22, of Winchester, Kentucky, assigned to the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Mobile Unit 12, based in Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek in Virginia Beach, Virginia, died on January 26, 2012, while conducting diving operations off the North Carolina coast in the Atlantic Ocean. He is survived by his son Ethan, brother Kyle, mother Elizabeth, and father Joseph.

Try to make the jump and pull on the bar flow. Although I’m not a fan of the mixed grip for these, but I do like Greg’s point of keeping the eyes forward rather than looking up.  This can be done with overhand grip as well if you set up so you land your burpee just in front of the pull up bar and when you jump, you’ll catch the bar.  Play around with it.
