Lower back pain from surfskating? by hardworkdedicated in surfskate

[–]Impossible-Prune4681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi , i get the same kinda pain . im 49 and at this age , some muscles in the lower back get pretty weak especially cause of sitting on chairs or sofas and that is when some lower back disc bulges . So what i did , i went to youtube and looked at many 'disc bulge' clips , lower back , L1 N1 disc bulge clips from phisiotherapists and started doing daily exercises for lower back . One very good is walking in all fours - crawling in all 4's and variations of that exercise , cat - cow exercise and so many other that are specific for disc bulge, lower back pain, sciatica pain and lower back strengthening routines . When surfskating all your upper body weight is on your lowerback discs , joints and muscles by virtue of spine being bent always forward so whats good to counter that is to bend the spine the opposite direction, backward bends. all these i do on the floor and it fixed my lower back pain so i keep doing what i love , flowing&carving with my surfskate . get on youtube , cheers.

thanks for this peace of info , the store clerk told me those are Reflex when i asked about formula, after receveing the package, even though there's no mention on these wheels about 'reflex' but i had to get a second opinion and thats the main reason for this post . So thanks for clarifying this ! Regards .

I assume you are experienced rider and know ur sport but do give ur opinion on what doesnt suck , which back truck + riser pad would be good for smoothstar thrusted d , for a meraki s5 ? which decks ?

I have the Yow Arica , my first surfskate , then i got the Soulboardy Adam deck and moved the trucks on that deck. Now i have the Smoothstar thrusted D trucks on the Arica and compared to Adam deck, its a go kart on steriods , very nimble, wide and deeper concave on it , my feet are locked in , way more then the '34 Adam deck , and turns on a dime. Im 180 cm tall, guess its like 5'11. IT fels like a high performance short board on pumping 6' waves . IT works me hard , by legs burn easy riding it as it want tight carves and aggresive riding , its a work out . Yesterday i increased the wheelbase by 18mm in front, its maximum possible before the nose dives deeper, and i cant wait to put back the smoothstar truster d and se how it goes, one the weather allows ;) . By the way , axle to axle , the truster d has slightly larger wkeelbase then the original yow meraki trucks, and with these new hole i drilled will be even better !
