Pop tail — slide front foot up.

Practice StandardStandard

3–4 focused sessions per week beat sporadic marathon practice.

  • Helmet Always

    Wear a certified skate helmet every session — wrist guards and knee pads add protection.

  • Truck Tightness

    Adjust trucks to your weight and style — too loose wobbles, too tight prevents turning.

  • Wheel Condition

    Replace flat-spotted or cracked wheels — worn wheels cause unpredictable slides.

Safety Notes

  • Always wear a helmet and wrist guards.
  • Check your board before riding — loose trucks and worn wheels cause accidents.
