Dropping In

I can't every seem to get enough speed in my skate park. I drop in kind of like a foot plant. I know this is not how the pros do it. Could some one tell me how.
 
alright ... u can def do it like ydarbnadroj sed ... actually that is prob the way to get the most speed but if u cant do that yet then just stand on ur scooter on the coping without using ur foot and lean foward...also u should pump alot while going down the transition

Everything above but make sure your back wheel cleers the coping. You dont want to case dropping in on something big.
 
if its too scary to ride and jump in, try just stalling on the coping and then sort of jumping in but without going up in the air. In other words, lean forward and throw yourself down the ramp.

yea i think you do it like tyler hale does, where he like jumps in with one foot but lands sort of low sometimes? just jump with one foot but make sure to jump up and then nosedive straight down into the quarter, or you can bunnyhop in, or stand with the deck hanging out over the transition, then just lean forward and sort of nose manaul a little down the tranny so your back wheel clears the coping
 
one of the ways i usually get most speed out of the QP is i actually ride paralell with the coping and then pump into it. i use to not be able to do it, but now im good at it

just practise on the way you like doing it the most.. and after you get better and you get enough confindence start jumping into the qp cos it gets you heaps more speed

stand on ur scooter on the coping without using ur foot and lean foward. dont use the jumping in thing if the quarter pipe is to big.
