Help to resolve stuttering of background position on ScrollTrigger on mobile

Would be happy to hire someone for a few hours to iron this out for me.

 

I'm trying to recreate background-attachment: fixed on mobile to create a kind of parallax effect on a section.

 

However, I'm finding that there's a stuttering on the Y-axis that I can't seem to get rid of. This is my first foray into animation and I'm assuming the stutter is related to the expense of recalculating and repainting the background position.

 

Here's a replication of what I'm doing.

Any help is greatly received.

Hopefully someone has reached out to you to help on a consulting basis, but I'd recommend trying to just animate a regular image with transforms rather than a backgroundImage because:

  1. If I recall correctly, many browsers will pixel-snap background image positions which can lead to it looking jittery.
  2. Regular transforms (like "x" and "y") are hardware-accelerated and accommodate sub-pixel rendering. They're faster and less jittery. 

Good luck with the project!
