3.2.
THE ACCELERATION STANCE
With the ZBoard power still OFF and standing on the ZBoard in the COAST position, flare out
your front foot so the ball of your front foot (near the toes) rests on the center of the front
footpad. You should be able to reach this point with your foot at approximately an angle of
45
°
or less. If you are unable to reach the center of the footpad, adjust your stance forward
and wider. See
Figures B and C
for correct and incorrect ACCELERATION stances. Avoid
rotating your front foot much more than 45
°
from perpendicular to the board, as pointing
your toe too far forward will make turning difficult and the ride less comfortable.
Figure B: The correct ACCELERATION stance.
Figure C: An incorrect ACCELERATION stance. If your front foot is pointed like this,
turning the ZBoard will be difficult and the ride may become uncomfortable.
