1. Approach the lip as you would for an invert;
by grabbing the inside rail of your board with
your leading hand."
2. Place your rear hand on the coping and
begin to invert your body.
3. Extend your body and kick out your front
foot so that your leg is straight, as if you were
pushing the nose of your board over the deck.
Keep your weight centered beneath your
board.
4. Retract your front leg as you begin to drop.
toward the lip.
5. Pull your legs toward your body and com-
press to make sure that you don't hang up
on the lip.
6. Touch down and descend the transition.
