    Nobody told me about de-weighting over train tracks and stuff. I eventually figured it out and I felt like a bloody genius, it's super helpful.

    I often ride the Hadean 15-20 miles. I found that cushioned insoles for the shoes helps. At 67, I take all the help I can get...

  • @oldSFskater
    @oldSFskater 3 года назад +7

    Regarding shoes, I find that a stiffer sole helps a lot. Hiking shoes are not perfect because the sole is not flat, but I find that they are more comfortable after 10 miles or so then my skate shoes. You can tell how stiff the sole is by grabbing the shoe and giving it a twist. You will be surprised how different it can be. Being 64 years old, some bits are, um, not so flexible anymore. So I also added insoles I bought at the drugstore which also seem to help.

      that sort of twist resistant stiffness is also found in running shoes on under the category 'motion control'.

    Change the standard grip tape for Dope Grip… much more stable and even a bit cushioned for your feet.

Use strava so fairly accurate mileage and speeds.... cant help if youre a FLYweight LOL i live in the burbs so trails her are pretty long. I rarely see other electrics out there. pretty much standard for me to travelwith extras these days. Oddly enough my 6 year old car had 11 miles on it at test drive is now paid for and i am still under 50k on that. testament to my 1st board that i ended up wearing the axle out on (SYL08) silly cheap and low end but great starter board!

    1. Ride with proper wheels.
    2. Tighten everything that makes the board carvy (you want speed not calf ache).
    3. Ride with shoes with a bit of height of the soles.

    Laughed a little at the footwear part, I pretty much only wear high support combat or work boots, only issues are arch/instep support, but good insoles solve that pretty quick. Can recommend anyone who wears the same to invest in a good quality gel instep support, will greatly reduce fatigue and extend your ride time.

      I don't think electric Skateboarding or even skateboarding is about proving something to anyone. People can just ride however they want.
      Unless u want to use an old regular skateboard and do tricks, being an aggro premadona about wheels is stupid. Let ppl do and customize whatever they want. Skating on the streets is hella annoying in some cities and having AT wheels isn't even a solution most of the time.
      It's a fun hobby, but let's be real "real skateboarding" is an elitist made up term. The only thing any skateboarder should say to another one is "wear a helmet and keep ur safety above everything"

    your feet should be facing the same direction, turning the front foot forward 30 degrees actually increases foot fatigue in the rear foot. pretty bad advice.

      @michaelgdietrich 3 года назад

      I rode over 2500 miles last summer, carve hard, have the bamboo, extra battery on my GT Carbon and after I ride a few days the fatigue goes away - I definitely use the 30 degrees, but I ride carve hard -- depends on your skill level if you are a beginner, then perhaps not the best advice -- also I use the wheel to stretch out my foot and calve -- good luck and enjoy what works for you... but in my semi-pro humble opinion, this video is very helpful... ride on:)
