Loose control skating in front wheels alone
As soon as I lift my back heel when skating in a straight line, my front wheels immediately wobble like crazy. They aren't going straight anymore but instead are going in an S path I can't control. Why does this happen?

Thank you! I'll experiment with some changes. I'm not trying to do anything specific. Just playing around.

@Lena Watkins hello! What a great wake up call for me. I've plateaud over the last few months and decided that's ok. I have fun every time I go skating whether I'm learning new things or not. I did get inspired to clean up my garage so I can start doing some drills in the cold weather.
April 2025 Skate Challenge
Creating a little space here for some intentional skate work next month. This includes: -Studying/watching tutorials/comprehending and breaking down moves -Practicing on or off skates -Practicing skate adjacent skills such as choreo and timing -Skatenance (skate maintenance) -strength and balance exercises -stretching -Rest and recovery days -logging time/activity, tracking and recording The goal is to do these things with consistency Consistency leads to growth. I like the idea of posting regularly for accountability, but also know that sometimes you just don't have the bandwidth to post every day. Maybe you come back here and post once a week about what you did. Whichever works. I hope some of y'all will join me in this April challenge, and share what you're working on throughout the month. I know the end of the challenge will bring many lessons I'd love to hear about.

Advice from other thicc thigh skaters?!
I think I am having problems getting crossovers (all versions) to work for me because of my thicc thighs... which I am FINE with BTW (not looking for advice on how to change them). I AM looking for advice on how to make my crossovers fluid and not trip over my own feet because I can't make my legs into as big an X as the slim folks.
Does This Help My Small Space Skaters?
I made a video showing some small space moves you can do or some variation of them for all my living room rollers. Click here to watch the small space drills video in the classroom <-- Btw I measured a 4x4 space for this. I had a few say these are too advanced ๐Ÿ˜† So I'm not sure if this is actually useful to yall. Just lmk.

@Toi MissToi I really like the idea of a glossary on within this platform to make it quick & easy to reference what other folks are talking about!
