Jumping onto the saddle at the same time as dropping the clutch can prevent locking the rear wheel. I assume that's where it gets the name `crash' from - `crashing' onto the saddle as you drop the clutch.
    i had always refered to it as push start, but my mate said push starting is for cars, crash start is for bike
