For my (Leah’s actually) trip thru method ( I’ve only tripped once and that was on my She Devil before Leah shared her video ) get your knee high and your foot back high as possible and near the lowest part of the top tube. I signed up for a cold group ride tomorrow. I’ll get someone to take a video if I remember and can send it to you. The first time doing it is the scariest.
