  3. Congratulations on the gliding.....I'm looking forward to being able to
    do that (hopefully sometime this summer). I'm curious, how much time
    elapsed between getting WW down and learning to glide? I'm just
    starting to learn WW (3m, longest ride).

  4. I just learned how to glide too and i have been wheel walking for a long
    time but have never done anything with it. Basically if you can
    comfortably ww you can start to glide. People will say to get good at 1
    foot ww first then go to gliding but i skipped that step and its worked
    fine for me😄

  7. No, Just diffrent, Because you need the seat prudy high and if your
    doing something like street you will want hte seat low so there will be
    conflicts there...

    Yea. A lot. The Duro tire on that is really really grippy, and you have
    to pull your feet waaaaaay up compared to a 20"

    I've had my qu-ax for for about a week now, and the longest I've been
    able to glide is down a relatively small hill, probably 200 feet or so.
    I think it just takes somee getting used to.

  11. Would it be possible to glide on a Coker?
    If you can, how do you start?
    Wish I can do this, there are these hills here that I would prefer
    gliding then squirrel all the way!
