    when you come up to the lip stand up and lean forward, and when the bike hits the lip let the bike come up to you, try to keep the suspension from compresing as much as you can

    The hill is very steep, when i went up it all i could see was the sky. hahaha. So its fairly steep. I priddy much did that but i landed on my front tire and lost all my speed, even the second part of the hill is fairly steep(the part after the lip). Some people said to pull in the clutch just as I hit the lip but I dont really like that idea because wouldn't I loose all of my momentum?

    you wouldn't lose nearlt as much momentum because you won't be getting airborne so you'll be able to gain it back pretty easy

    Here is a nice wicked-redonculous hill climb I mastered:




    This is the hill climb that I almost did a backflip/corkscrew off of a tree.

    Look at this last picture. Failed attempt obviously but still. See how our feet are angled? This hill was a bit steep. I went up it with a light 1st gear blast.

    i have always been told to go as fast as you can at the bottom and as you reach the top start letting off until you just roll over the top(no lip)

    If it does not move at first, get a bigger hammer!!
