Well, I've been heeling Since February 2nd of 07', and I think Im ready to tryout again (since its been over a year and a half since I last tried). What tips do you have? And, on the tryout form why does it say "Print & Fax" AND "Submit". Do tell. Also, must I know vert to be accepted? Cause, quite frankly... I like what I do. Flatland is just my skating style.
(oh, and don't worry I'm gunna get me rolling into the bloodstain so you crazies will believe me) |

Well on the team captain member requirement sheets it says basic tricks and has to be able to do basic vert and have legit intentions.
advice for emma: BIG OPEN SPACES. your space is so small most of your tricks are jut the trick, no rolling into it or out of it. and go at it with speed so that it looks more precise and sharp. Dont rely on breaks so much it makes the tricks look sloppy and stop emphasizing that you spent so much money on heelys. Stick to one pair for the video dont go from razzles to zevos to clutch. use zevos and show that your into aggrezive heeling. dont label the tricks either, make it fluid and people at HSL know the names, do lots of combos too, not just crabwalk and thats it. and keep the editing to a minimum.
wizman: Keep doing what your doing read what i said to emma and remember that. you can already do some vert so just practice and get better at it. |

the only problem is:
My Clutch's, they're awesome but wayyy too big. XD
Evos: I still have the BD wheels.... so.... basically I cant do crap on them.
My Razzles, well, those.... they're unstylish but they fit the best and stuff.
Thanks for the adivce though Seth.
EDIT: ohhhhs, and what about the fax / submit thingy? |

Why don't you just stick some Mega's in them? Mega's are like, mega-cheap in the US compared to here - here we pay the equivalent of $45 for a pair and that's not even with shipping, so I tend to buy the shoes to get the wheels, but you don't have to: Over there Mega's are only like $15
Here you go Emma: you can have Pink ABEC-5's or Black ABEC-7's. They're medium so should fit your US7 Zevo's fine. |

No probs.
Changing bearings is pretty easy once you get the hang of it too. But yeah if you run your wheels as standard probably best to go for the 7s. The 7s probably come with coin axles too so yeah, might as well go for them. |
