First ride

Hi. Thank you to my first 100 subscribers and the great comments. It means a lot.
First runs with @ROCKETLongboards and really fun. I was nervous about using it because it felt sloppy, but i thank changing out the pivot cups ( 🙏 @downhill254skate for the suggestion) made a difference. Plus getting use to the riptide footstop (🙏 @ChemTrailSkate for suggestion) made another plus.
The take away from today was taking it slower and the surprised the it’s now two sessions and a natural rear slide is happening. All fun.

You're doing great!

Nice carves brother you got it

[@gavinstrelitz1558]

With the Paris trucks put some Green Venom bushings in them, makes them nice and sturdy. Also Pats Risers have a Paris insert you can use to reduce slop in the truck. Lastly, start trying one handed slides like Colemans

[@cantskate5535]

Thank you. I by good coincidence - have green venoms in. I have risers in already and do have second set of Paris inserts -double up ok? I did get 2” screws just in case. Agree-I do need to work on single hand slides. Next session. 🤘

@@d.p.l9623 thank you. Credit goes to @downhill254-he is the wealth of knowledge who is awesome at sharing.

Put screws into your deck so they just poke through your griptape every 1 3/4" along the back edge of your deck where your back foot toe goes and 2 screws around where the ball of the front of your foot is when it's pushed up against your toe stop . Trust.

[@jonkrause6714]

Thank you. That has been a bit of struggle for consistent back foot guide/placement-makes sense.
