    Perhaps the #1 mistake I see people make learning to drop in, is keeping their back leg strait. They hear the advice to slam their front leg down, but with the back leg strait and locked, they can't get the front trucks on the ramp.
    2 tricks I use to break people of this:
    1. A variation on your tip to reach forward - I actually tell people to touch or grab the nose of the board. This forces them to get their weight lower and keep both legs bent. It usually also serves as a cue to keep their body moving with the board.
    2. If they continue to have trouble, I tell them to think more about picking their back leg up than slamming their front foot down. If you look at your video, you'll notice your back leg position changes a lot more than your front leg.

    afraid to say I must be one of the few people to have stacked it forwards, after a 20 year break from skating I decided to hit the skatepark again in my late 30s. I remembered from when I used to skate that the key to dropping in was leaning forward so put everything into leaning forward, i didnt even give the board a chance to keep up with my body, instead just through myself straight into the bottom of the ramp, gnarly. Its been another 10 years and here I am again about to go do it all over again

  • @okosakaroklenni
    @okosakaroklenni 3 месяца назад

    One thing I found useful when learning: with all your weight on your back foot, and barely touching the board with your front, try falling forward without putting any pressure on the front of the board, and without the board moving at all, like you want to fall forward onto your side. At the very last moment of this freefall, when your brain tells you to avoid it, do the stomp and put everything on your front foot. Your can actually practice it without the board. It is esppecially helpful if you want to start practising on straight ramps without coping, where your board is likely to roll backwards if you to the whole thing too slow. But even if the ramp has coping it helps to delay the stomp, so you are more likely in a perpendicular position relative to the board.

  • @warcraftdude13
    @warcraftdude13 4 года назад +4

    tip: Tighten your trucks if youre a beginner dropping in. Reason: First time I was learning i had loose trucks, got the confidence, tried stomping down and sprained my ankle as my front foot twisted sideways onto the board. Next time I tried and got rid of that variable just learning to drop in and get the feel I did it first time.

    In addition to what you said about bending the knees, I found holding/touching the nose helped me learn a lot faster when I started dropping in. I do this when I drop in on something I feel slightly more uncomfortable with, i.e. pool coping, so that I feel more confident.

      Dale Decker sadly I did not get footage of it but my one of my friends saw it happen but I’m not sure what I did wrong what I was assuming was I possibly leaned to front or it was my board at the moment was a little snapped in the center so when I probably dropped in the board Springed/bounced me forwarded

    I finally got over the fear of dropping in! I keep falling though but my friend say that my ground foot is too close to my back foot that’s why I keep falling backwards so I listened and I did it and didn’t manual down the ramp but did fall at the end but honestly if you just stomp, lean and make sure your footing is correct then you are good to go

We're married with 3 kids now and that's why I'm here to give tips to them 😁 (I stopped skating after an ankle and wrist break over 10 years ago)

    One piece of advice I give to anybody who wants to learn how to drop in: Never drop in on concrete. Always drop in on wooden quarterpipes and flatbottom. When you got the drop in, keep doing it so many times until you get comfortable with it.

    • @Ash_Hudson
      @Ash_Hudson 3 года назад +1

      What if you're padded up and have a helmet? Concrete is my only option at the moment. Used to skate street and can do a lot of shit, I just never learned to drop in. Was always too scared or would wobble out when I did commit.

    • @SlickRick4EVER
      @SlickRick4EVER 3 года назад +1

      @@Ash_Hudson - I mean, for sure, do that! Alongside what you mention, if you can afford to buy hard bushings (or really tighten your kingpin so that your trucks stabilize), then that will help, significantly. The reason I say to drop in on wooden bowls is because you can afford to get back up at the expense of not beating yourself down on concrete (as I had a few encounters with that... with and without pads). The more you get control of a wooden ramp, the transition to concrete is more simple.

  • @benjaminmorse3315
    @benjaminmorse3315 4 года назад

    I taught skate camp for several years and what I often did was have kids stand on the transition (as if they had just dropped in without a board) and pointed out how much weight is on their front foot and the back foot was just there for support. That helped a LOT to convince them to lean forward more than they think they need to.
    If they still resisted, I'd have them pump on the ramp until they hit the top, and then do tail taps. That's very close to dropping in.

    I fell forward like twice. Once as a kid, once as an adult, learning again. Both times were right after falling backwards and I over compensated, overloaded the front wheels and basically rolled forward. Hurt my shoulder a bit, but I almost dislocated my shoulder once falling backwards, so definitely prefer falling forward, tho I'm good dropping in now. It's figuring out what to do on the other side of the ramp I'm struggling with
