very steep banks with a 2 ft vertical drop to flat at the bottom?
couldn't lift the front end up high enough when I reach the vertical bit and so plop off and basically the fork gets fully compressed (130 rev) and I nearly go over the bars even though i'm hanging off the back!!
Any advice re technique would be most welcome
thanks in advance
Bill
you mean a step? like this ¬
Think he means a steep bank but rather than a roll out, a 2 foot drop like, ermmm (lets see if this works)

Maybe?
so your going down a steep bank and the last bit you have to pull away from and drop to flat?
Think that is what he means, and I sure as hell couldn't do it! Am sure either a manual all the way down would be fast and furious or you have to do it on the slope near the end. Length of the slope decides? (and I might have just one last edit on the picture 🙂 )
you do it the same way as if it was what i said .its just you start it from a different angle and pullyour bars harder and push your feet away
yes tracker that's the kind of thing although not quite that steep!!!
Jedi ...how do you mean "start from a different angle"

watch this a few times :)[/url]
You need to make sure that the back brake is off before you can pop the front wheel up,peob don't need to be going much faster than walking speed! Good luck 😯
you start from \ instead of - but the move you do is the same
