Took a couple of years off from dedicated flat but have been back at it for about 15-25hrs a week for 2 months.
Broke down and finally updated my ride to an Intrikat and free-coaster with fastpitch forks.
I've been fighting halfpackers / hikers for 15 years.
I can hang five forwards and backwards around the block.
Finally getting some traction, spinning hang 5's 2-4 rotations, spinning steams 2-3 wide rotations, half hikers for about 9 seconds. (Most look awkward and terrible)
Can't get mega spins or any turbines to speak of.
How long did it take you guys to transition from 1 footed traditional rollers to more new school double footed tight circles, turbines and combos?
