	ok, thought I'd make the first street topic.. There is this ledge in my city, its unwaxed and barly no one knows about it. I go at a mild pace at it and I get about 4 feet and I just stop, the grinding feels really rough to. Should I just wax it or doesnt that really do much and come off on my pegs? Or maybe hit that thing at full speed? clink

	Gulf wax or canning wax is the best for rough concrete. If it's real bad, get some old skate trucks and grind it down some. ------------------------ I'm not anti-Bush, just pro-intelligence.

	Just go fast and lean back (do the Rockaway) so you don't flip over the bars. are you kidding me.. if u lean back ur not going to go anywhere.. see at my school i have tons and tons of ledges so i can basicly wax like 3 and do the rest waxless.. so if you have 2 good ledges, wax one, and leave the other the way it is. im assuming you want to feeble it.. because double pegging a waxless ledge is hard and you prob wont go anywhere. So, on your waxed ledge practice getting into the feeble grind, and keeping you wait on your front wheel.. and try to have as little of your weight on the back peg as possible.. i woudl reccomend like 4 or so pedals before the ledge, that way you have a good amount of momentum after you get on there.. after you are doing great feebles on the waxed.. take it to the unwaxed, and make sure to keep your weight forward.. i dont wear shoes (i wear combat boots, even when i ride)

	wierd, the guy with 10x more expiriance does something totally different, when i do something rough and i feeble i keep my weight over my front so that i'm on my wheel that rolls rather than the peg that doesnt want to

If you are gonna double peg or smith you better lean back. Am I right this time? :wink: Is it just me but aren't feebles played out? I thought all the hardcore streeters do other grinds instead of the easiest one. There's no excuse for being a dickhead.
