There are probably hundreds of inventive ways to drop ones mast. So far I have mastered on one of them.

If you forget to disengage the pop top slider from the pop top prior to lowering the mast, the pivoting action of the mast will usually pull the mast step up,,,, this is actually pretty good, the other possibility would be to rip the pop top apart
