Drops...

The right pressure is right between being able to not bottom out but not
having a brick for a tire.

I think it really depends on how much you weigh and how high the drop
is. After doing a few drops you should be able to find the right tire
pressure.

i usually find that when i pump up my tire just a little above what i
feel is good, then just do some light riding on it for a few days it
gets to be about right (cause it leaks a little). but ive never done a
drop over 4'

i'm about 190 pounds and for me about 18-22 psi is a little firm for
"regular" trials riding but close to right it i'm doing drops over 3
feet or so. maybe try buying a fatter tube so it doesn't have to
stretch as far. like 20x2.2 instead of 20x1.75 (if you're even doing
the latter)

I'm doing muni. Most of my blow outs have been from over-inflated tires
landing on ground that was rockier then it looked.

yeah, I agree with this one.

Have it soft but not so you will hit rim when you land the drop. Too
hard and well.. its just hard and doesn't absorb the drop as well.
