    That’s some crazy bullshit. And imagine, carving on a 151 skate banana.
    If you want to carve, keep your weight 55-45 on your back foot and go fast. Faster than this guy.

  18. Yeah, and also …
    Yeah, and also wrong? 75% weight on your front foot?

    If you do that then your back foot skids, which is exactly what happened in his demo.

    Increased edge angle + equal weight distribution = carving.

    More edge angle by flexing joints more + earlier edge change = much better carving.

    not a really good explanation and carving on a park board, though possible is not something you want to be doing too often…it’ll kill your knees, hurt your back, and you’ll torque your board.
