I managed to increase my trick repetoire today, all the way up to an almighty TWO different grinds! I had already managed to nail the soul grind and they've been gettin' better and better.Had a crack at the acid grind today. It was all a bit sketchy at first but I soon realised the importance of gettin' low and then I was lacin' them with relative ease. Next goal: MizouPeace!See More

Thanks dude, speed is what I'm workin' on now. I always get faster towards the end of a skating session, then just as we are leaving I start to get a feel for how I should be doin' it :) Peace!

My First Edit!

Hey everyone! I bodged together a little video this afternoon that you may enjoy. It mainly features my further attempts at nailing the soul grind, a brief snapshot of our lovely local skatepark and I'm pretty sure you get to see Charlotte's stripy socks and trademark rainbow laces at one point. Something for everyone, I'm sure you'll agree :) Check it out on my page, all comments appreciated. Peace!

I am going to sound like a total twat but I can't get skating backwards xD I can do it on ice, but i don't know what's different about doing it on wheels.
