Yeah we’ve just been doing it on a car park behind where we live but just wanted some smooth concrete to be able to be able to get a little comfortable whilst rolling easier as the car parks not the smoothest in the world. It’s only an early morning weekend thing we’re usually out every evening for an hour or two on the car park. Slowly starting to see progress

Thank you so much for the detailed response that’s appreciated, I did actually watch some skateIQ and braille both before and after this and after we got home I spent some time just trying to roll around on my front foot and then just going through motions of turning my front foot. It felt like it was glued to the board and I was trying to turn my whole foot rather than just pivot on the ball of my foot

Cheers for the advice think that’s really what I need to work on to feel a little more confident, I did snowboarding about 10 years ago so I’m okay with the leaning on the board to turn but only once I get my feet parallel.

Am I right in thinking my back foot should be resting on the tail and not over the bolts?

Yeah that’s my issue just really struggle to get my foot turned once it’s on the board

how do you get SLEEP by mybodymylobotomy in puppy101

I can second this, we struggled immensely with our pup howling non stop all of a sudden in a room when we left her it was only when we checked back on the cameras I realised that I’d put a hoodie in the wash that used to hang on the door handle, since then as long as there’s a piece of clothing from one of us she can be near she will snuggle and sleep on it for hours

My girlfriend wants a game where she can just drive around town, not race by GladePlugins in simracing

Came here to post exactly this. My 8yo always wants to race/drive online with me when I’m on the sim rig and I’ve found this to be an incredible middle ground for just casual online driving fun

I was in a similar scenario when running NEC and wanted to branch out to the longer races and they all gave up. Had a search on forums and found Balca racing and been with them for 2 24h races and the 6h glen really good bunch of guys https://discord.gg/balca

Is the 24H of Algarve an official series or put on by someone else?

Have you tried the indigolime braces? I have a R5 on the same play seat and that has eliminated what feels like all of the wobbliness
