- New gliding record and proof of it
Today I did a record 170 foot glide[1.8M .mov], almost blowing through the stopsign at the end of the block. That is my sick goal, but I keep moving the starting line further up the road. Today was a relief. Yesterday I was very inconsistent most of the day but did manage a record 135 feet. Today it took about twenty minutes to warm up to the process, but then went 145 feet. This was followed by a couple of 140 foot glides. Before I got to 170 I had a few in the 155 foot range.
I think I put in about an hour and a half today, and my body feels it. This skill really taxes my upper body and ankles. Another thing I was working on was leaning forward a little more. I prefer to dismount off the front so I can run out of it. Falling off the back is a little abrupt. When I say lean, I don't mean a huge lean, just more upright. I can really get stuck leaning backward and it takes a lot of work to get back upright.
