Since my last post on longboarding, I’ve been learning to push up slide and coleman slide. These are essential skills to control your speed so you can safely tackle steeper and longer hills.
I’ve also made a couple of hardware changes
- switched to powell peralta snakes, following many many reviews on reddit
- added freebrake brake soles to my shoes. I had nearly worn through the heel and toe on my right foot from frequent braking. These appear to be up-cycled car tyres!
