Place does look like fun.

Are those keys hanging from a belt? That could hurt.

I see you also use the tongue sticking out technique to adjust balance ratios (last picture). I also realize that if you took the keys off it would throw the balance way off and other adjustments would have to be made.

Yep, it's a bit steep so I carried momentum into it. Make it right up no problems! :thumb:

It could be done with momentum, but one could also get their wheel on top, then lurch if they don't do trials.

The easiest way would be a side-hop though.

No. The easiest way is to ride right up and over it.
