Hey everyone thanks for the feedback so far! I’ve done an overhaul to a lot of the mechanics that control the board. I've reduced the max distance the board can go down and rewrote the grip system amongst other things.

Repeated intro

Hey everyone thanks for the feedback so far! I’ve done an overhaul to a lot of the mechanics that control the board. I've reduced the max distance the board can go down and rewrote the grip system amongst other things. Overall the board should be less floaty and grip to your hands better. There are still bugs and it's not perfect but I think it's much better than before. I also want to give a big thanks to Mentality Skateboards and Dan MacFarlane. If you skate please check out their boards and videos I've listed below. As always please let me know of any issues and what you think of the new controls.
