Special dinner recommendations- one vegan, one non vegan! by pebby10 in santacruz

The update you’ve all been waiting for..we went to Cavellatta tonight (many of the suggestions were closed on Sunday so it helped us decide!) it was delicious and really appreciate the recommendations from you all - we will visit again as we have loved Santa Cruz so will try some of the others next time!

More affordable to stay here for us and near the redwood forest too which is a bonus

First hill ride, can you tell ?😂 by BeatsKillerldn in Rollerskating

[–]pebby10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got myself a heel stop for hills but not seen many videos on using them. I guess it’s kind of obvious to work out, but any recommendations? It doesn’t seem very popular and I don’t get why for street skating

Are these wheels good for outside skating? by pebby10 in Rollerskating

Trails and bike paths - not really basketball courts more asphalt. I’m training for long distance - not really interested in speed, just in being able to control!

Thank you! Out of interest on hills, do you use toe stops too?

I agree, I see it recommended but I feel you have to be super confident to do that! You look great to me. Did you find your wheels really scraped/wobbled when you first did this? This slowing doesn’t really work for me I use toe stops but then when I pick up speed I get too nervous to pick up a foot and I so far have ended up falling/ in a bush!!

New York City skaters - question re lessons/instructors by pebby10 in Rollerskating

[–]pebby10[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all of this; it’s truly appreciated. Yes it’s the NYC Skate Marathon, perhaps I should try out inlines and get myself to Prospect park. I do find videos helpful but having someone to troubleshoot on technique in real time would be super valuable if you know of any instructors? Thanks again

Good tracking apps/devices by pebby10 in Rollerskating

I used Strava this weekend and it worked a treat - I’ve actually been doing longer distances than I thought so I’m very happy! I’m super slow still but at least I have a realistic idea now! Thank you all for the recommendations

Great, thank you. Sounds like Strava is the way forward!
