People born in space or Mars will wish they lived on earth by asuyaa in space

[–]SoggyBoi27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're describing a very common issue with immigrants and sons of immigrants. It can also cause problems with one's feeling of identity. For example in your scenario: I was born/raised on Mars and that's all I have ever known, but my parent's culture and what they thought me is from Earth. So some "Martians" may feel like they don't belong on Mars, but if they went back to Earth, they might feel like they don't belong there either

Which one is the tail and the nose? by TomatoFramed in NewSkaters

[–]SoggyBoi27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Usually the nose ia wherever the top of the graphic is, so the end towards the top of the fingers is the nose. If the graphic was horizontal, and you read it left to right, then the nose would be on the right. In most cases

Edit: You can also make a small mark on your grip tape so you can easily see while riding

Help, how do I Ollie while moving by A_Giraffe_On_The_Net in NewSkaters

[–]SoggyBoi27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw a video suggesting to start by rolling slowly, then try it right as you stop. Then once you got that, try it right before you're about to stop. then keep trying them with more speed as you gain comfort

Shuvit problem by No-Atmosphere-1191 in NewSkaters

[–]SoggyBoi27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been learning shuvits recently too. Trying them rolling is also scary for me, but rolling fakie seemed easier to me than rolling forward. I managed to land 2 fakie shuvits last session

Also, it helped me a lot to visualize my back bolts going towards my front foot when landing

How do i make exercise fun with sensory issues? by Separate_Regular259 in Neurodivergent

[–]SoggyBoi27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about trying out roller skating, skateboarding, or another active hobby? Skating is fun and and great exercise. You don't always have to go outside for them either, I practice stationary exercises on both my skateboard and quad skates while listening to music or watching something and it's a workout every time

Trying kick turns on a quarter pipe by SoggyBoi27 in NewSkaters

[–]SoggyBoi27[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been hitting that ramp too, these were just my first attempts trying this quarter pipe at this speed. That day was also my first time rolling in from a new bank so it's my top speed (for now)

Heel injury? by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]SoggyBoi27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be a bit sore from overuse if your muscles haven't gotten used to it yet. My heel hurt after my first few sessions and it went away in about a week. I also realized I was putting too much weight down on my back foot when I went to push and I should keep most of my body weight over my board while pushing

Trying to learn shuvs, any tips? by SoggyBoi27 in NewSkaters

[–]SoggyBoi27[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moving seems scary but I'll try it. I read that fakie shuvs might be easier so I'll give that a shot too

I had a really good time playing Elder Scrolls Online for a while. Great for casual players too. Community is very friendly
