STEP 3: BRING YOUR WEIGHT FORWARD AND EASE ON THE POWER

-

One of the most critical parts is just as your rear wheel hits the ledge. You need to avoid having your rear wheel slam into the ledge and at the same time shift your weight forward so you don’t loop out. Keeping your weight as low as possible is also really important to maintain traction. Once your wheel hits the ledge begin to ease on the power to gauge whether or not your wheel is going to spin or not. Once you get a feel you can apply more power, however easing on the power is critical as your momentum dies down.
