Nice progress. Looks like you just need more reps to get your confidence/comfort level up a little bit.

Hah, recently picked up a set of indy stage 4 trucks after going from CX to C5 in a similar pursuit of mixing in some more traditional bowl skating along with the surf specific training. I am not interested in rails or grinds apart from maybe a carve grind or slash grind in the bowl, but hoping the indy setup will help me build up the nerve to learn to drop in.

I am taking it easy and still feeling out the indy trucks and how loose/tight to make them, but I find it's a very different feel than the C5s. Obviously can't turn as tight, but also can't turn your way out of trouble as easily as the surfskate trucks. I find I need to be more precise with my lines in the bowl since it's harder to make small adjustments with the tighter trucks.

My ollies are pretty bad either way, so can't provide much insight there!

Nice, looks like better coordination between upper and lower body.

Still working up the nerve to try the drop in, but it's on the list for 2024.

Thanks for the feedback Blair. I'll give this pattern a go for a bit.

During which parts did you feel like you were struggling to generate speed? The sequence of turns starting around 28 seconds in looked really good.
