Re: crank stall to rubber 24x3

I think seat out is the way to go unless you can hop pretty high seat
in.

I can do crank stall/grab to rubber on my Summit very consistently. I
can only do seat in hops (barely can do a curb seat out).

I surprised myself a while back doing crank grab/stall to rubber on my
24x3 Gazz Muni.

This may sound painfully obvious but remember learning crank grab to
rubber on the 20? You just had to keep trying to hop a little higher and
retract a bit better until you got it.

The additional height needed is "only" 1 1/2 inches. A little harder hop
and a little more retraction and you'll be up to rubber with the Muni
soon enough.

Regarding seat out; I understand pedal grab to rubber is easier seat out
but is crank grab to rubber any easier seat out?

since you're not on the tire, you don't get any bounce to propel you
upwards. it's just yourself jumping up. clearly you could jump high
enough to clear it, but I personally think it's easier to jump not as
high, but pull up and bend your knees to get the tire on.
