After a quick demonstration, I think I have ridden this feature on Entrails in Squamish a few hundred times, it still brings fear to my head because I have also crashed a few times bad on this.
This rider thought he could do it but the back brake did him, it’s 80% front brake with maybe 20% rear.
Have you crashed on this? I think most have that have tried.

The camber on it looks difficult for sure.
I recently upgraded my brakes from a 2 piston shimano to TRP DHR Evo’s. Completely different experience on rock rolls now.
Wet rocks covered in moss? I’m not sure I could walk down that lol
Ya I’ve done it many times, never crashed, fortunately!
I tend to think you can’t creep this one and just need to kind of send it with minimal brakes a bit faster than is comfortable, and then scrub the speed in the dirt berm that follows. At least that’s how I ride it.
