Sign in to mark this one off. Every trick you land is kept, and only you can see it.
The lowdown
Air out of the transition and grab the toe edge between your feet with your back hand.
The indy is the default grab in every wheeled sport. It's the easiest hand to reach the board with.
Tips
Get proper height first, then reach. Suck your knees up to bring the board to your hand.
Why it isn't working4 common mistakes
Grabbing before you leave the lip. A pre-grab is a crutch; ollie off the coping, then reach for the board.
Reaching between your knees. Reach round the outside of your back knee for the toe edge.
Holding the grab into the landing. Let go before the wheels reach the ramp so your knees can bend.
Airing straight up the wall. Carve a slight angle so you come back into the ramp, not down on the coping.

Where it sits
Why it's Spicy: A drop-in keeps four wheels on the ramp. This is the first time you leave it: ollie above the coping, find the board with a hand, and come back in with the wheels pointed down.
