I wouldn't think of dropping in on any crete....unless it was on my Hustler! Anything less...would be uncivilized!

I was blown away by all the familiar names I saw on the BDS forum about dropping in, so I'll just say everyone has to start somewhere (swiped from the AugDog):

If that doesn't cheer you up you officially suck! Maybe you Cali boys are spoiled by roll-in channels (Orange Combi is my dream road trip)? Well don't feel bad, I can probably only do it on a Numbchuck. I just scored my 2nd bruce lee chuck and doubt I'll ride anything else for the next two years. |

i think its all the same between short and long, same thing with big ramps versus small ramps, theyre equally easy to drop in to. |

i find dropping in on my BDS PCTTII is much more difficult than on my Hustler. |

i was riding some dudes huge skull skates deck yesterday. dropping in on the six foot was no problem but i always do a rock'n'roll on the next side and my knee is now reminding me that it takes twice the effort to swing that hunk back around since i only got it half way before i ate shit. |

droppin in on a longboard is same as a shorty
one thing is it is smoother and more stable so you are less likely to drop in and swerve
off line and slam. there is always soembody wanting to try my longboard , and they drop in on the first time and are all happy and they look smooth on it. |
