your tuck is best when you cant see sadly, thats why you count the stripes in between the corners

Andrew has a point, and yet on the other hand, the more weight you can get infront of your front wheels, the faster you will accelerate, its just the way gravity pulls, that is why bobsleders cheat by adding weight to the front, you have to get it infront of the front skiis and you accelerate faster and have a higher top speed, so from a safty standpoint, don’t lean too far forward, from a physics standpoint, it will be faster

I can't skate in those boots. I wanted to try that day, and it sucked.

the facial hair makes you go faster, simple fact.

I haven't had any trouble holding that tuck, I can see just enough in front of me to avoid blemishes in the road. And leaning that far forward is no problem, when I see I big bump I do lean back a little bit.

thanks guys.
