  So I should probably post this here seeing as I was all excited about taking up boarding again ....

  

  fuct my ankle!
  Went to see a Physio last tuesday and he taped it up and told me to rest it. Going to see a Chiropractor today to see what the crack is as it's still sore.

  Half of my commute is downhill and half is uphill. I'm pretty sure that the ankle fuctness comes from braking going downhill. Rather than putting braking foot down flat on the ground parallel to the board I was keeping my heel on the deck and only putting front of foot down which means my foot was getting pulled and twisted with the forces and tenseness.

  With the uphill the pushing has been pretty hardcore too so think I've been not pushing correctly - I kind of suspected that at the time that it didn't feel 100% right/comfy.

  Anyhoo, hope it manages to clear up soon. If not then that's more of a reason to get an electric one ;)

  • adding those 2 missing screws might stabilize your ride and take away vibrations, and be more gentle to your hairy foot.uan
