Learning to drop in at the skatepark or
on a ramp is one of the hardest things to master in
skateboarding. Not because it takes so much skill, but
because it takes a lot of will and guts. However, if you
are going to learn to ride at the skatepark or on a
ramp, you will need to learn to get comfortable dropping
in on your skateboard.
What is Dropping In? - Dropping in on a skateboard is how most skateboarders will enter bowls, skateparks and vert ramps. At the top edge of skateboard ramps and along the edges of bowls there is a rounded raised lip called the "coping". Being able to drop in allows skateboarders to go from stranding on the edge of the coping, straight into skateboarding with a lot of speed down the ramp. If you are brand new to skateboarding, you'll first need to get comfortable with skateboarding around the park, along the ground, and over transition. You don't need to know any tricks befire learning how to drop in on a skateboard, but you will need to know how to ride your skateboard. This is because once you drop in, you will be riding very fast, and you'll need to feel comfortable with riding and guiding your skateboard. |
