Aggressive Inline vs Speed Inlines - Backwards
Hey guys! long time blader here (10+ years)with a question about turning into a backwards skate. On my aggressive inlines, I can turn on a dime at any speed and maintain a backwards skate; however, when I go to use speed inlines, I eat shit trying to going into a backward skate at higher speeds (can skate backwards just fine when I do get it). Question is what is the technique for actually turning backwards on speed inlines? I grew up using the aggressive inlines, so I think I’m also battling muscle memory here and doing it completely wrong. Just curious! Thanks!
