As you drop down, compress with your legs and with your elbows before pulling up and imediatlely around on the bars. Keep your weight cental and over the back wheel. As your turning still, ensure the bike is pulled close to you. This allows you to gain the last 90 degrees as you come down. Let the bike come down naturally as you turn, shift forward to control the bike and ride away. </div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
