Finally sent the Fox drop in Avoriaz

Noice! I left this one for the last day, when I finally found some people waiting to drop and followed them

Stupid question:

Visually it looks like you just get enough speed and ride off these drops. Is there something you are physically doing to the bike?

I tried the training drops at my local and my front wheel just clunks over it, I don’t actually drop. Am I supposed to bunny hop off of it?
