For some reason it took me much longer to learn how to drop in on a ramp. I built an 8-foot ramp in high school (no vertical) and it took me ages (weeks, IIRC) to drop in without immediately planting a foot and running or falling down the ramp.
When I finally nailed it I was so happy. Damn, I miss skateboarding.
- thret 12y agoI remember the first time I dropped in too. It is another one of those things where if you don't commit all the way, you fail. Once you get it you have it for life. I think having my friends get it first helped me with that one! I'm impressed you built a ramp! Luckily there was a nice new outdoor skateboard park near my friend's house, we didn't have to build anything :)
