Stick to it. Well worth the pain.

Yes, a lesson is worth it.

Most of your weight on the front foot

Your shoulders face downhill when turning, or at least that’s the intention: don’t fear downhill, embrace it.

Heel, toe, heel, toe, on and on so as to smoothly go left and right at cruising speeds

Nothing wrong with crouching a little for lower center of gravity in the beginning.

Thank you! It's definitely fun as fuck, I can't wait to go again

The first 2-3 days are akin to torture. But the learning curve flattens out after that.

Nothing beats practice.

I’m excited for you.

I try and keep you in the loop when I go again! Thank you!
