You guys still alive?

Anyway, got 78a wheels and some bearings I know nothing about. The board rolls like a champ however and I get confidence by the minute I'm riding it. But, how the hell do I stop my board? I tried making sharp turns and that didn't really work out. Is there any sure way to stop the board without using straps and without stepping off the board?

PS: wasn't there a shoutbox on this site?

Anyone still alive?

Well, if they don't pay attention to the site, I'd hardly consider them 'affiliated' with us. Perhaps they just like to say that, who knows...there aren't many people we don't know.

I just meant they are registered here:P

Aha...yeah..they're registered here. Not sur ewhy they're not here more often, but they're around.

Alright, so next issue for me, well pretty old issue by now. I've been trying to accelerate over bad terrain but I seem unable to do it. Last week I figured I'd just apply more force and this week I found out it only burns my muscles. How do I accelerate over a road that is quite the opposite of flat?
