MANOUVERING YOUR 

Sky Walker

 PART 1.

Now that you’re comfortable stepping on and off the 

Sky Walker

, you can now focus on 

gradually making the 

Sky Walker

 move forwards and backwards.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT and remember, the 

Sky Walker

 is intuitive.  We advise you to 

not overthink the gliding process but rather to remember the operating/motion rules:

Move forwards. 

 Tilt your toes to the ground slightly to start the 

Sky Walker

 moving in a 

forwards direction.

Stop moving. 

 Flatten your feet on the 

Sky Walker

 and maintain a straight body position to stop 

the 

Sky Walker

 moving.

Move backwards.  

Lean your heels towards the ground slightly to start the 

Sky Walker

 

moving backwards direction.
Do not ride or turn fast when travelling backwards.
Always stop in a controlled manner and avoid stopping abruptly. Stop by slowly shifting your weight 

away from the direction you are travelling. Failure to stop in a controlled manner may result in the 

Sky 

Walker

 losing traction causing you to fall. 

TOP TIP: PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE.
