Just to note, there is a slight lift in the front wheel that actually makes you stay level. You won't visibly see the lift as you are dropping but you will see clearly that your bike will be leveled/ parallel to the ground because there is a lift keeping the front wheel up leveled. The lift prevents you from going over the handlebars. If you do the lean back fast enough and as you can see when April leans back, the arms naturally pushed out the handlebars forward, which they actually naturally pulled the handlebars too. You don't want to actively pull on the handlebars! This is a mistake you need to avoid! Just like the wheelies you don't actively pull the handlebars up your arms are like a string so leaning back and pedalling hard makes, your arms or lets call it the strings they are attached to your body and handlebars causes a slight pull bringing front wheel up when you lean back. The drop will have different technique than wheelie. What I said above was just saying if you lean back you do naturally push or pull on the handlebars. It's hard to explain. You try it on flat ground and you will see what I mean, when you lean back it the lean causes you to push handlebars out slightly but your also pulling them, or when you lean back it causes you to pull which your also pushing the handlebars. It's the same movement whatever way you think about it. You should see that your wheel should lift up a bit when doing it on flat ground. But don't actively pull the bars as you will lose balance, it's a beginner mistake!
