    You've done quite a few videos on drops, now, but this by far the best explained and demonstrated one, nice one, Dusty!

    You are the only YouTuber that breaks down everything, to help us understand!<br>When I understand, I can do so much more than simply trying to imitate someone else.

    I&apos;ve been trying to figure this out for ages and finally recognized this technique when I saw a rider doing it the other day. Now you have explained it perfectly. As usual.

    Great job showing how it’s done. One of the best instructional videos I’ve ever seen. &nbsp;I love how much time you spent on the wrong form. &nbsp;That was super helpful. &nbsp;It was exactly how I was taught and I couldn’t get the drops right.

    Came across this video and it is the best I have watched from all the drop videos I have seen. Really breaks things down, step-by-step, and slows the video down to show what proper form and body position look like. I am now subscribed and looking into his other videos to glean some insights on other techniques. Fantastic videos, mate!

    This is the best tutorial I&apos;ve watched covering how to properly go off a drop. AND the only one injecting confidence and getting me excited to finally hit up my community bike park and give it a try... on the baby drop, of course 😂. I especially found the colorful linear markups very helpful in driving home your point; they aided in visualizing my body position on my bike as you provided the steps. Thank you so much for the thorough explanation.

    Thanks for speaking English in a concise understandable way to teach this method. Can’t understand the Aussie/Brit/Irish every vid on here! You make sense. Thank you.

    I&apos;ve watched a few other tutorials on drops, and, this is most likely the best I&apos;ve seen. Tips with actual theory and explanations to behind it. Thanks!
