your size can be tough though. And those solid wheels, while flat-free, are murder, real bone
shakers. Plus its arguable that having those two little wheels in the back make it LESS stable,
even though it can seem counterintuitive.\That's because you rode a Big-Wheel (aka: looser-cruiser) instead of a Green-Macine
You wouldn't call them that if you rode one down Signal Hill. I saw a
dude crash the skateboard downhill event there in 1976 on a Big Wheel.
Any Green Machine rider would never have hit the speed that dude got.
