Hello all,
What is the best way to "drop" of a curb or ledge, approach at a slow or fast rate, should feet be glued to the board how do you land with out losing control of the board.

@tony420121 So far I've only dropped off of "half-curbs," but I've found the best way to do it that doesn't result in me losing control of the board is using @njcustom 's advice: right as the wheel is about to drop off the curb, press down on the board with your feet and concentrate on coming down evenly with both feet and keeping the board completely level when it hits the ground.

In this video of me driving, I dropped from a very high drop, and all you have to do is to drive fast enough

The drop is around 0:50

I just learned how to drop curbs yesterday haha. what i found the best was to go a little fast and jump off curbs on drive ways then you can choose how high you are jumping and work your way up... thats just how i learned

Here is a little curb at I dropped down at Santa Monica Pier. Go fast and believe in yourself! Just try to keep balanced.
