  2. Uh i learned wheel walk, 1 ft ww, glide, and then coast.

    For gliding just do a 1 foot ww and a let your foot scrap against the
    tire. Its easier to learn on a hill. Just start ww and then let your
    foot slide as a brake on the tire. As you get better you can use less
    and less pressure to glide longer. It takes a little bit to get the
    feeling of letting your foot slide on the tire, but that will come with
    practice.

    For coasting just ride one footed and then take your other foot off. It
    takes a long to time to figure out the balance for that. I suggest get
    gliding down

  3. if you are beter at 1ft ww than ww then stick with that... make long
    pushes from your toe to heel then glide your foot back over the tyre
    and push again... lean back but not too far its uncomfortable,
    eventually you will get used to gliding your foot back and you can
    start taking longer pushes. also, try pull gliding as it it easier than
    gliding on your own.

    for coasting, ride smooth 1ft and just take your foot off. use both
    arms for balance and look ahead... i dont reali know for coastin, just
    practise lots and always be trying to reajust your weight to keep you
    balance if you start falling.
