jumps...

hi
i am thinking about going to diablo for the opening day so i have to be prepaired
i wanted to know what is the technic to hit a drop such as phantom drop or the new drop (forgot the name)? what is the technic to hit table or double such as dominion ? and how do i have to do if i want to hit the wall ride?
that's about it if you have any other important things that can help me ride and have fun like how to do the table top.. i'll apreciate.
sorry for my english but it's not my mother language.
and i hope you guys will tell me important things
thanks
have a good ride

ps: does the water park is open next week (for my kids..)?

well the tabletops are just normal tabletops. the wallrides are like banked corners. you just have to ride really fast and lean it. it will do the rest. drops require different speeds but the same technique as any other one.

but can you explain to me the way to do it ( i am sorry i might have not express myself very well) the way to do any table, drop or gap.. because i am not sure on the way to do them. do i just have to bunny hop or pull the handle bar (for gap or frop)..
and by the way i have a 15 years old boy, he wants to do the us open do you think kids are accepted?
thanks a lot

Try clicking this link:

Click on the topics labeled "Drops" and "Jumps" on the left side of the screen. The videos and narration should be pretty helpful.

kids can enter in the open, just do amateur class. you dont have to do much for the drops, just pull up a wee bit.

that video link was pretty cool. I definetly believe the drop video because I have done them all the ways it mentions. Hucking off the Shadow Drop is a little nerve racking so I just started doing it the right way. The jump video I couldn't relate to except for absorbing the bike into your body. Although I can't jump worth a crap. Okay I will keep watching the video
