What skaters said on Reddit
Dale Decker on YT has a nice video about this. Main thing is foot position. Starting at about 5:00 [VIDEO]
manuals are typically easier the fast you are moving. (for most skaters) one huge tip i wish i knew when i started skating was that most of controlling your balance during manuals comes from your upper body, not your lower body. try to move your front arm to balance better [VIDEO] this video by dale decker is pretty useful
This video helped me out. I wasn't placing my feet on the right spot but I was able to improve after watching it. [VIDEO]
This is a great video I was watching yesterday: [VIDEO] I'm also working on getting my manuals longer.
1.) Technically it’s a wheelie, not a manual. Wheelies start rolling with four wheels on the ground, manuals start from an Ollie/popped trick. Wheelies are still worth learning, and worth learning the right way. 2.) Real talk, tail drag makes your entire manual not count. This is in any game of skate, any competition, etc. Accept it, move on, and take that knowledge to get better. Don’t argue with experienced skaters
