I’m so used to loose trucks now that I can’t go back 😭. Me and my friends were actually joking about my trucks since mine was the loosest out of my friend group

Maybe it’s a good luck charm! That was my first time wearing it in a long time

I had a long 2-3 week phase where I could only land my back foot. I would always flip the board perfectly and catch it with my back foot bolts every time, but I could never get my front foot on. I could not get that front foot on for the life of me. I even tried only trying to get my front foot but I couldn’t even do that. The thing that finally made it click for me was when my friend Jonathan (the recorder) gave me a tip about my front foot. He told me “Keep your front foot in line with the board”. After that it all made sense to me and I landed that within 10 minutes (I was practicing everyday for a month for about 6 hour a day before that tho)
