MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
4. Making turns
First take the starting position. Then bend your knees further and shift
your weight towards the side of the board, on which you want to make a
turn. In order to turn to the right, shift your weight to the right. To turn to
the left, shift your weight to the left. The radius of the curve will depend
on the lateral pressure you apply. The more pressure, the smaller the
curve.
Keep your skateboard in good condition!
1. Wear and tear requires regular maintenance and repair.

After cleaning, lubricate the bearings again. To do so, use a suitable
lubricant. Make sure no sand can enter the ball bearings.
