I thought dropping in from an elevation was called an acid drop. I could be wrong though. What's a bomb drop?

 I think a bomb drop is performed by letting your skateboard drop into a ramp like a bomb (you halt the tail an let it fall) and the skater also drops in and lands on the board.

biffsk8er: 2 definitions for acid drop found on skateboard site (27. Sep. 2011 00:53)
 Acid Drop :
1. To ride straight off of an obstacle such as a ledge and drop to the ground without ollying.

You might be right as this sites 2nd definition is :

2. To ride from the top of the ramp clean over the edge - over the coping - and push the front of the board down so that you meet the transition (curved section) of the ramp.

Sounds sick! I haven't ever seen anyone perform it. It's even hard to imagine that would work.

Props on looking it up, Biff. The definition's related, but not exactly what I meant. Either way, dropping in from that height is impressive to me.
