Hey,! New moron dude asking for tips...
Oct 1, 2008 by Soapnoob Greetings all. I'm a soaper from portugal (perhaps even the only one :x). I've started around 3 weeks ago and as my nickname says, I'm a noob. Since I'm the only one around here to practice soaping I was hopeing you guys could give me some tips on the subject. btw, my soaps, or in this case, heelys (whit grind plate. Model name: Five-0) were the only ones I could get, and I had to order them from the US, since there's no such thing as "grind shoes" in this shithole little country wich I'm ashamed to call mine --' anyway, here are some questions: 1-would you advise me to put wax on the grind plates, as skaters do on rails? 2-what's the best position to keep your balance? 3-I'm still a little wierd about hittng a stair rail (falling etc...). which move do you advise me to do for my first grind on a vertical rail? these are the first of some questions. thanks for helping me out, since your the only conection I have to this awesome sport ;) cheers!

2.The simple frontside grind, with your feet shoulder-length apart and your knees slightly bent is suitable.
3.Once again, the simple frontside.

4. any advise for a well done royale? i've tried it a couple of times, but my feet tend to be faster than my body(even if bend forwards) and i almost bussted my wirst a couple of times while crashing from a screwed up royale :s
