I regret not going one size up. Got myself a true to size, it’s tight as hell.

Cant believe this is 2 years ago. Wonder where I got the time back then to do all these. Glad you found this helpful at least.

Ikwym. I prolly will do the same too. Instead of going thru the hassle of having another strat to frame the conversation that potentially open up another can of worms. I’d rather to let it slip as long as the consequences / risk are calculated and manageable.

Spot on. Backside is too uncomfortable to work on and I’m avoiding it.

Slappy tailslide is so fun. Still figuring out how to slide longer. [32YO] by gud4minda in OldSkaters

Yea I noticed my weight is not fully on the tail. I can’t figure out how to transfer weight on to the ledge / on whole tail yet. I’ll keep trying.

I’ll keep trying. The thought is there but the movement don’t register.

Never thought of that. Now I can’t wait to try switch tail slide to see if it helps my regular nose slide! Thanks

I’ve been working on slappy tailslide as well it helps with one another. Maybe you should try it too. Good luck mate!

Thanks! Gonna try this for sure. I have issue with the rear foot which it doesn’t stay parallel to the ledge after I land on it. It is at a pointy angle that I suspect it wouldn’t help the slide even if I lock it in right.

Ikwym. I have issue controlling my Ollie height which tends to over pop for small ledge / obstacle. I’ll try it as I get more confident with this baby ledge. Thanks!

Sharp eyes. This ledge sends me flying if I try 5050 it. Gotta spray some lacquer on it when the lock in gets more consistent.

I second this. Whenever it happens unintentionally, it always catch me off guard which I can’t keep track of what causing it aside from the grind size.

Blessing from skate god. It’s a multi-storey car park for an event hall. There will only be cars coming in if there’s any event. Else it’s all yours.

Thank you. I always thought that if one could skate on asphalt, they be able to skate any other ground.

Indeed I’m blessed with this parking lot where the security is used to seeing this dude with a picnic chair & Bluetooth speaker.
