One thing I noticed at the end of your video at the skate park. When you were dropping in off the mini pyramid your front wheels didnt hit the ground until you reached the bottom of the slope. This is how people get hurt dropping in off larger ramps because the board slips out from under their feet and you'll be laid out on your back. When you drop in, lean forward and slam your front trucks into the ramp. [VIDEO]
