Carver_afstellen_C7
Afstelling Carver, neem een skatetool(of steeksleutel maat 12 + 14) mee met skaten. Doe steeds een halve slag, en dan weer even skaten totdat je de juiste weerstand voelt die jij lekker vindt. Als surfer probeer je de druk /weerstand na te bootsen die je op het water voelt.

DO NOT turn it!*

1) Turn clockwise for a heavier setting. In case of a wheel-bite** problem, adjust it heavier.

1b) Turning clockwise is heavier. With this, you tighten the spring inside. The 'arm' will then swing more heavily from left to right.
Deze eerst instellen voordat je punt 1) instelt.

2) Turning clockwise is heavier. Rear axle should feel stiffer than front axle, this gives a better surf feel and more speed when carving.

* Only if there is play on the 'arm'. And then tighten minimally until the play is gone.

** wheel-bite, when in a sharp turn your wheel hits the skateboard, which can cause braking and a fall.
Often the problem here can also be solved by your technique. Not steering the skateboard with your ankles but purely by applying pressure with your toes and heels without using your ankles but by 'dropping' your body forward and backward as a whole.
