47 second Skate IQ clip on how to drop in. Teaches stomping the front foot to commit over the edge of a ramp or bank.

Why skaters like it

Linked in r/NewSkaters when someone slams dropping in. Quick stomp cue, though commenters add that weight must stay over front bolts.

“… You really need to shift your weight forward so it’s over your front bolts. …”

You said to stomp it and then didn’t. But really the issue isn’t stomping the front. That’s just a quick way to teach it without going into detail You really need to shift your weight forward so it’s over your front bolts. You has your weight all on that back truck. Better to go to far forward than backward in that situation. But best is to look up SkateIQ on YouTube. [VIDEO]
