What it is

Drop In
How it works
- Set the tail on the coping with the back foot and hold the nose up with the front foot over the bolts.
- In one committed motion, press the front foot down and lean the shoulders forward over the nose so the front wheels meet the transition.
- Keep knees bent and weight centered as the board rolls down the ramp.
