Another Lucid Dream but very vivid( have another question)

OK so it seems like I'm getting very good at Lucid dreaming I seem to always catch my self dreaming during dreams and become Lucid

Heres the story
In the dream i was in my middle school this is years ago so I'm surprised i didn't notice sooner well its a long dream I'm basically going around school during my day its kinda like I'm a new student then i go outside because i just cursed my teacher out and I'm running so i don't get in trouble i loose her on the Field and i go to my friend they seem to be ignoring me it feels strange then i look and say wait this isn't real because all these people are grown up and look older so i conclude I'm dreaming!!!OK so heres where i become lucid i jump off the steps on the Field and and run to go find something to touch to become vivider its a old rusted pole PERFECT so as I'm touching it my hand turns into rust color its kinda cool then i turn around and attempt to fly as I'm running i feel like i am going to wake up i lift off but get a little air then fall and wake up damn!

OK my last post i got a really good answer to this but i wanted to know what ways you keep you self in the dream i recall this dream was long before i became lucid so it is possible i just ran out on REM period i kinda hit the floor then woke up not so much at the same time so yeah what do you use?

There are a bunch of techniques that increase clarity as well as help stabilize the dream. Dream spinning (spin around in circles), Hand rubbing (self-explanatory), focusing on details in the dream (which you did), saying commands out loud to yourself like, "Stabilize the dream!" You may have to do this multiple times throughout the dream in order to keep it intact. Instead of trying to fly when you felt you were waking up, you could have tried one of these techniques, sometimes it will buy you more time.

Congrats on the LDs, keep it up

Sounds like stuff ive read before on these forums i will make a better intension at stablization and take more time for it i just usually feel and look at somthing for a split second then wanna get on to have fun but i will take it slow and do what you said if i can remember.
