Airing.

Hey guys I'm just getting into some tranny riding i need some help on airing (Like over the coping and back in). Does anyone have any tips ? Like i understand you have to kinda hop and pull in a bit..But I've been practicing and I'm struggling with it. Sorry if theres already threads on this i searched and nothing came up, And this isn't really a trick so thats why i decided not to post it in tricks you need help with.. Thanks.

trick is not to jump too early or too much, or you'll bottom out. I still do that sometimes. You also lose a lot of speed doing it.

lean back and try to keep your self at the same angle as the ramp, then barely bunny hop off the coping, then when your in the air lean forward to keep your self pointed into the ramp

When you land bend your knees and lean back slightly (obviously not so much you fall backwards)

At least this is what i do...

It might help a lot if you aren't trying to air out of a metal ramp. They are really mellow and hard to get above coping on. You can't really haul at them but if you don't have speed its not gonna be right. Pump up the ramp and when you get to the coping start your bronco/ bunny hop. Spin the 180 and get ready to land. When you hit the ramp you'll want to be centered, but as soon as your comfortable again pump out of it. It is really a lot of practice and just going for it. I can pretty much guarantee you're not gonna fall unless you trip when your running out or if you slide out.

You can haul ass at a metal mellow ramp, you just have to pull out harder. Also, dont SPIN the 180...just look at where your going and chances are youll "spin" that way.

thinking about it your right about the spin part. i kinda just look at the coping and im around. i was probably thinking bike when i said that. they arent easy to get out of when its mellow.
