Yeah there is a fine balance between taking it easy, and pushing yourself too much and getting hurt! But you can get hurt taking it easy also so may as well go for it. I was annoyed because I didn't wear my pads, but I dont usually slam like that from an ollie. I think it was wheelbite that threw me off. Clouds are good so far! Handle crust way better than dragons and I haven't notice too much speed loss compared to Dragons yet (and I have way better bearings with the dragon set up too) I think I will do a review/round up on them after a month of skating

I think you should call the shuv-it mount a shuv-it start off. It would look sick at the top of a bank where when you land it you roll into the bank. That could be the next thing you try if you find a mellow bank. Other than the shuv-it start off I think you should learn body varials. This will help you get into fakie for your fakie Ollies and then open the door to half cabs and fakie shuvs.

If you ever feel like in the future the trucks don't turn well, try out different bushings. They can be a much cheaper resolution to the issue compared to a new set of trucks. That being said, out of the box, I'll take Indys over Thunders any day! Thunder trucks are on my (these days not really used anymore) filmer setup. It's not that I don't like their turning, I feel like they initiate the turn differently. Indys turn instantly, whereas Thunders feel like they need to line up after the impulse. Also, big boards are lovely. Fell in love wit them back when shape decks became more of a thing like 10 years ago, and got myself a screen printed Welcome deck. I am currently back on a "conventional" popsicle, but never rule out some "out there" shapes when buying a new deck. On the bearings, yeah Spitfire Classics are a great alternative to Bones Reds, I don't think they make much of a difference if taken care of, but it's just a matter of belief. lol.

Looks like a nice little park. Next time you need to take your board. I always take my board everywhere I go. If your wife has an issue with it just tell her its your holiday as well and you want some skate time. I always try and find parks near play areas so the kids can play while I play. Another thing I try and do is go out early to skate on my own and leave the family asleep. That way you get the skatepark to yourself as well.
