Has anyone attempted to go into a toe manual or when skating backwards, and you put you directional foot on its toe. the foot that goes up on its toes wobbles uncontrollably hard. I've asked a couple people at my rink has this ever happened, and no one knew or could remember. What is this called if ther is a name for it; how could i stop it, and why does it happen.

I saw a post earlier and there were a couple people mentioning the importance of “off-skate” routines- I like to work on eagle in both directions against a wall to help the flexies and stretch- what are some things y’all are doing off-skate that is proving helpful when you get back in skates?!

what are the best stretches & exercises to do before skating?

So I'm a new skater, and I'm starting to get into moves now that invole edge control. I've made it to where i needed to loosen my trucks a great deal to be able to get the edge that i need, for moves like the dip, or a jb sway. The problem i am having is when its time to come back off that edge I feel like I have no assistance from the skate at all. Is this normal, and something that will take time to get used to, Do i need new cushions, and if so any recommendations? Im currently running the riedell powerdyne thrust plate with the orange color cushions.
