Yeah jsm knows whats up, im not hte only one who tells people ya gotta lean back,
Well I only rode 24 for a couple o years ond learned on one, now i ride 20 and i find it hardre on the 24. I think htey are the same, once you get used to one U can learn the other no prob.
*when ever i try ww without assitancei get going to fast and fall off forward. Do i just need to lean bad more? *
You do need to change your weight distribution when wheel walking. It means leaning back further than you will feel comfortable with initially.
When you're wheel walking you have both legs out in front. That means that there is extra weight out front that needs to be countered by leaning back a bit more. That's the freaky part with learning to wheel walk.
Push your butt backwards while keeping your chest out. That's bad posture if you were standing and it's the kind of thing you'd do if trying to make your butt look bigger and your chest look bigger. But it helps with wheel walking because it gets the weight a little bit further back while not being too far back.
