Static Balance

Skill 4 of 6

Why it matters

Balancing at a standstill turns chaos into time. It buys you seconds to choose a line, reset, or help a friend.

Principles

• Eyes up; breathe; make micro‑inputs at the bars and ankles.
• Keep one finger on each brake; weight centered over pegs.

How to train

Practice track‑stands on flat ground, then add small turns or gentle slopes. Focus on relaxed upper body and steady breathing.

Progress cues

You can pause calmly before obstacles and restart without drama.
