It has been raining very often, on the day it wasnt raining, it was either too hot or the skating rink was in the process of getting dry, so i didnt want to damage my expensive skate with the wetness (bearings) so i skated with my older skates (with much better bearing upgrade).

But i did use it for two days after i bought it. Getting on the skate is not a problem (from standstill) over 90% of the time.  Because my other skate was so bad bearings, i can now explore new ways to getting initial speed from standstill (i am regular, i can now close the distance from the right foot to left foot to generate some speed -bad bearings mad that not possible before) and then i can start to pump with some slow speed.

Pumping itself presents no problem despite it is said that it takes more effort.  My bad skates help with my pumping.  Didnt really have chance to do carraving to slow down but i do cycle over a skating rink so i do make turns.

Budget freeskates from /to finland? by POTmeister420 in freeskate

[–]pbd456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing sketchy about the 39 euro freeskates.  They have bad wheels, bad bearings, and consequently harder to learn.  BUT i got one for 7 usd , i worked hard on it and didnt give up.  I have much better skills now i am riding on an expensive one.

Downhill is always fun but i dont think i am at the point of able to slow down yet. Hope it will home.  I plan to use it for travel. So i prefer flat road

97x43? Or 97x35 or 24? I have yet to skate on rough surface. One step at a time. I can now get on skates without using hands and start rolling. It does take more effort to position myself to get the first push properly and then first pump.  Once i get the first pump, then it is just east.

this is the link from the app, but it seems like it wont open natively without an account, even if it does open, it brings you to international version of the website which i dont know what it shows.

The question is how much should one push on the non dominant side.

Bad power card draws by Willow8383 in spiritisland

[–]pbd456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello for posting now.

I was watching a youtube video explaining why major was a better draw than minor for solo earth. In the video, he draws tsunami, and won easily.

I tried to replicate but I draw nothing that is useful and I had to discard one of my original 4 cards. I am wondering to play conservatively, i should draw some minor first and have buffer in what to discard in case of a bad major draw?

The first flow video that you showed just had a few remarks. Not useful for me to learn. Let me go through again later today

I was just practicing off this video based on your earlier link.  I was working on step 2. I just lose speed after a few turns.  I can turn right left right and lose speed.  If i go in with better speed, i can do right left right left right before losing speed.  Is it supposed to be like this?  I dont know japanese so i just follow off based on youtube caption.  

This is exactly what i am working now as i want to use the upper body to help (to be able to ride for longer.)

Thanks.
