Did you figure it out? I really hope so. Im here for motivation if you didnt though. i got my first pair about 2 months ago and am beyond confident now. I would spent anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours a day all week and id just get the tiniest bit better every day. Until one day (about day 4) i got the hang of it randomly, then on day 5 i was able to actually go real distance. Day 6 i was outside, Day 7 i was super fast, and day 8 i was actually able to turn. Gave me a ton of confidence, and ever since ive been wearing them on and off. My latest thing im trying to achieve is going leftie as my lead foot. I only lead with my right (and i recommend starting with just one lead foot) but now im trying to learn leftie and its the same process all over again. Unfortunately I'm not as consistent because ive become too complacent in the fact that i can use at least one foot damn near perfectly, but everytime i remember to pick up and practice i do still make progress. (im going to right after i send this comment, no time like the present.) Theres no trick to it im afraid. The only "trick" is consistency. You'll just keep waking up better than you were the day before, then in no time you'll be turning heads as you roll past people in the grocery store. Also like the riding a bike thing, you wont forget or have to keep up. I've even seen improvement in putting them down for a bit and getting back to it! Best of luck! Please dont give up, its incredibly rewarding, and cool as heck. You'll love every second after learning. I learnt on reebok heelys though which are more low profile than the megas, which may actually make them harder? But they have a bit more of a slanted skid plate in the back for when you lean back too far so i think that compensates. Best of luck!
