It’s not pedalling (I’m singlespeed so can’t pedal on the downs anyway) it’s just getting out the seat and moving my weight over the front and using my legs as suspension as well I suppose.
A few times I sat down (and back) and the drop in grip at the front was noticeable. My previous mtbs have all been a lot shorter and steeper so I have been able to get away with being less focused on weighting the front.

Why are you trying to pedal when it's down?
