HOW TO DROP IN THE EASIEST WAY TUTORIAL!

i felt that but on a very very steep bank

I always thought that

[@jamelii]

The fear is overwhelming

[@clonkex]

I was utterly terrified about doing this, and every time I tried to do it I couldn't fully commit and the board would slide out from under me. Eventually I realised that it's less about slamming your front wheels down and more about shifting your weight very quickly to your front foot. Don't just "roll" your weight forwards, kinda jump forwards slightly, so that even when you're doing the practice step on the flat your tail doesn't leave the ground until your weight is fully forwards. Today I went from being too terrified to try dropping in, to being able to confidently drop in on banks (ran outta time to learn quarterpipes). My first step was flatground. Stand on the tail with your back foot, put your front foot near or on the bolts, start to lean forwards with your weight still on your tail, "jump" your weight forward onto your front foot causing the wheels to slam pretty hard. Once you have that down, find the _bottom_ of a quarterpipe and put *only* your back wheels on it, a few inches up the ramp. Then do exactly the same thing as on the flat. You're only like 3 inches off the ground so you can't die, so just go for it. If the board slides forward as soon as you try to start, you're not keeping your weight on your back foot. Keep practising until you can slam your wheels down and roll away without the tail sliding forward. Now go find a nice shallow bank, one you're confident to just roll down without dropping in. Stand back from the edge, do the same flatground practice step and roll down the bank. Stay leaning forwards when you do this. Now put just your front wheels over the edge, only a couple of inches, and do it again. This is where you may start to feel the fear come back, but just remember you can roll down this bank already, and slamming your front wheels down just over the edge will not increase your speed. Just think, "it's the same as flatground". If you can do this step you're golden. Go back up the bank, put your front wheels over the edge again, a bit further, and drop in again. Once you can do that, you should be ready to try dropping in for real with all wheels over the edge of the bank. Just go for it. It truly is way easier than it seems. Hopefully that random instructional comment will help someone :P

Thanks. 43 yrs old, just learned to drop-in today (about 3-4 feet concrete bowl). The pretending to grab the nose did it! It's all mental. Next rock'n'rolls and tail stalls. I got somehow rock to fakies and axle stalls already. Also, I can carve/pump the corners and carve grind small bowls ok (no one seem to do that by the way - too old school?)...stoked to try that on bigger bowls/pools with drop ins, 70s style, heh. Pads might be a good idea at this age I guess? :)

Really encouraging to hear. I'm 41, first time on a board in 15 years. Had a half pipe put up in the garden last week, tired of pumping, going to try the drop in any day now;) Hopefully the tips from this video will help. Damn Aaron makes everything look so easy

[@Zei25]

Thanks. Just dropped to a full-size plywood bowl (maybe 6' at the lower end) couple of weeks ago. Been riding the bowl mostly. I guess at this age the carving thing just somehow attracts. Still suck at rock'n'rolls and tail stalls..need to work on those in the summer (= smaller park stuff). Just bought a BIG Alva 34x11 pool board...now going to concentrate on the speed and carves (and eventually working my way to carve grinds on the lip). Stoked - lots of old farts on the local pool, good times!

I did my first drop in today I found a secret You know how Aaron teaches tricks by landing with one foot on the board? Try a drop in, but run out of it as your front wheels hit the ramp, it builds amazing confidence, and it lets you get used to the sudden transition of leaning forward Once you got this down, all you gotta do is put your back foot on there and stay on the board

[@totallysick88able]

This is when you really do need a helmet. It’s easy to get flung backwards. I remember busting my head so hard as a kid learning this.

I was a skatepark yesterday and I was rolling into a ramp. Then a guy in about his late 20s came with his young kids (they were fine and knew proper skatepark etiquette.) He encouraged me and the kid I was with to drop into a 6 foot quarter pipe. I had never done it before, but with his help, I did it second try. I’m very grateful for people like him and Aaron for helping and giving other skaters confidence, thank you. 🙏🏼

[@sk8theory149]

Dropped in for the first time yesterday! Didn't have a bank to practice on, but at least the miniramp was small (about 1 m). Another piece of advice: don't keep your knees too loose (they shouldn't be stiff either though)! Even after committing, I often ended up falling and kneesliding after already making it all the way through the transition, because I had no stability, and it threw me off once I reached the flat. When I get back there (hopefully some time next week), I'm gonna have to work on keeping my legs more stable.

[@HairByAriiianna]

As a former gymnast, fully committing is the number one thing to remember in my opinion. I just recently began to learn how to skate and one of the first times I was on my board I got scared pushing off, kept all my weight on my back foot and the board shot out from under me. I haven't learned completely how to drop in but I'll definitely keep these tips in mind.

If you can drop in 1 meter then you can do a 2 meter, I guarantee it. Just keep your weight forward and don't back out at the last moment or just sit at the top for a half hour. There is no super special secret to this trick. You just gotta nut up and do it.

[@bozonini]

[@RJLicksRocks]

You leaned back and didnt commit brah

[@bozonini]

Update #2. So I finally dropped like a boss. My mistake was ofc not leaning forward enough. But I figured how to understand when you are ready for a 1.5 ramp or not. The thing is you have to be super comfortable with your small ramp drops. When you think you already have a good drop on a mini ramp and its time to find a bigger rampf... dont rush, give few more days... be 110% comfortable with yourself.

[@jpbet]

If you can do it on a bank, you can do it on a halfpipe because you are moving the board the same degrees. With a bank the board is raised, but on a quarter the board is flat but you go down further. It's really the exact same.

[@TimFromWales]

Had my first go (at 46) yesterday of doing some carving and skating. This is the next step for me!

[@natalna3196]

Here’s the thing... Now I need to find a tutorial on how to commit I’m such a scaredy-cat 😖

[@seanfriedlund3346]

lol

[@niahaatef1958]

Man u are my inspection to skatebored I have started watching u yesterday and I learned how to ollie how to drop in and the kick flip u are my inspection keep doing what u are doing u are awesome and so talented

[@rodolfojose1916]

My first drop in was succesfull :)

[@julionvalentine1183]

Sweet! :-)

[@thatdudefrom7118]

Thanks I just dropped in on a quarter pipe for the first time today and that tip of reaching for the nose is the tip that really made the difference and after I did it once I was able to do it every time after that.

[@Tucnak2o0]

lol, i can heelflip easily, i landed a few varial heels (working on those), landed one weird halfcab heel (90° instead of full 180° - working on them too), but i can't even flick the kickflip

[@Forever-ec8tm]

I can flick kickflips so easy but I can't even heel flip. At all. Lol

[@romeothedope]

i used to do both now i can only do kickflips. .__.

[@koolxaids3851]

ive been skateboarding for 1 month now and i think i am ready! I pump all the way to the top of a 6 foot bowl and touch the railing so i think i can do this on 4 foot!

[@brodychodey2840]

“Like you’re just gonna drop into a volcano and die into the lava”

[@SM-lw7ln]

I stopped skateboarding 2 years ago and I came back to see the videos I used to watch and i might start again

[@dizzle2212]

I watched this video, tried it and snapped my fucking leg. 3 months in a cast now.

[@biolinkstudios]

How even?

[@frankdrebin7949]

You need to improve your fall technique xD

[@biolinkstudios]

Frank Drebin I agree, first thing I did on a skateboard was fall off as much as possible to understand how to land without hurting my self.

[@frankdrebin7949]

***** Me too, except my pants cracked and it hurt like hell haha

[@theopenmouth9695]

That is your own failure.

[@OctaLevan94]

This is easily the best trick to dropping in. Just did my first one today! As long as you commit to grabbing your board you’re golden

[@myrmirtom3273]

Not being able to drop in made me drop skateboarding

[@alexterrel9594]

Amen dude. Everything gets so much harder after Ollie's Manuels 180s and kick flips. Lol

[@VarizonPlays]

+zobieandme I know what you mean, I've got a lot more confidence if I'm skateboarding on wood, not concrete. If you fall on wood is doesn't hurt that much, but when you fall on concrete, ouch. I mean asphalt in stead of concrete. Not only dropping in on wood, everything feels safer on wood

[@FartMcGwire]

+Varizon it's really not that different lol

[@mysteretsym]

Dropping in is 99% mental game. It can be tough to overcome the fear but once you do youll never fear again.

[@mysteretsym]

shwben - concrete is harder than wood. It can definitely give you more confidence and it will definitely hurt less.

[@larrywilfong226]

I DID IT!!! ididitididitididit. Thank you for your videos. 42years old and finally did it.

[@fm5570]

Me: That quarter pipe looks small I will try to drop in on that -climbs onto the quarter pipe- Me: .. AAAAAAAAAH

[@trnxjd4549]

the fact that i did everything that was wrong in this vid was awesome and now imma not gonna do the wrong things anymore... thx braille!

[@fabianride8208]

I always manual down And fall Any help???

[@whyshouldyouknow543]

you probably need to put more weight on your front foot and maybe lean forward a bit more

[@reganhuitema4188]

whyshould youknow more weight on front foot. i mean it when I say this but put 70% of your weight on it

[@mysteretsym]

What he said. Once you learn how to do it its 99% mental.

[@arnymon9340]

This video helped me a lot, thanks! I have realized that bank is slower, but more tricky one. Quarter is easyer, but faster.

[@Stuart-little]

5 minutes after watching this I got my first drop in Edit:it's been about ten minutes and I dropped in on a halfpipe

[@brailleskateboarding]

Amazing! Well done and keep going!

[@madbug1965]

This probably makes the most sense I have ever heard. I took my son to a skate clinic and he used the exact same technique.

[@leahhayley9668]

Our skateparks amazing with the setup but it's so annoying there are so many 6-10 yr olds in your way your afraid you'll kill them

[@johntoth9150]

Just kill them. Their parents leave them there to get hurt. They just dont want to hit them personally. It's true.

[@felt_that]

Literally watched this in background got it first try. Thanks!!!

[@cargoshort]

How to break your arms the easiest tutorial

[@cargoshort]

When ever I try the back wheels and the tail move so I bust my back on the pipe

[@fannys941]

Or your ribs...

[@alexconnor5997]

I just did my first drop into I have to say it is really easy if your comfortable on your board. It’s just you have to get over the fear of hurting yourself

[@hen3219]

First Attempt In Learning Each starting letter spells fail

[@k1llerm0th56]

It's called an acronym

[@scarlettstateler454]

This was really helpful! It's definently having the confidence for me!

[@JamesVlogs100]

He is making it sound too complicated, when I learnt I just pushed my front foot down and got it first try

[@thatkidfromthatshow]

Imagine if he made a video called "HOW TO DROP IN THE EASIEST WAY!" and all he said was "Push your front foot down".

[@museoffaith]

*learned .... Learnt??? Sorry to be a grammar natzi, but no plz no

[@museoffaith]

And if you already know how to do it then why are you watching the video

[@fluffylikestoskate66]

Vivian Amezcua plz?

[@mysteretsym]

James Fox what did you roll off a bank? If you dont put your body down youll fall on your ass and the board will shoot out. Your body has to stay perpendicular to the ramp

[@westerly1hoaboard420]

Thanks for tips . Picking this up after 40+ yrs off. It seems simple and is but yes the commitment part is spooky. Gonna put these to use and start getting it right.

[@MHorrell]

I'm watching this the night before I'm going skating tomorrow and I've never been able to drop in but now I have the confidence too, thanks man, thanks a bunch ;)

[@JeanPhilippeMichel]

thanks a lot for those videos you make! me and my friends started skateboarding because of you and you really help us improve! continue your good work!

[@matthiashepworth6583]

Greetings from England. Very very helpful. Cheers fella.

[@user-rd7lz1kn8j]

it’s just fear honestly, just gets friends to help. my friend literally just pressured me to do it which i still thank him for. i did fall the 1st few times but it was definitely worth it
