Changing cushions on Arius Plates (on an older plate)
Watch me struggle to change the apparently easy to change cushions on my Arius plate! It's really not that hard, my plate is a bit older and it was a bit stuck in places. Why am I swapping for medium cushions? To have more stability and less lateral movement. This will aid my balance. At least in theory. My preference for cushions is slightly firmer in the heel. I have installed the same in all positions though. Thanks for watching! If you found this useful, please let me know. You can purchase replacement Arius cushions from my skate shop - The Skate Sanctuary www.theskatesanctuary.co.uk

Created for the non-dance specialists out there. this dance for La Fine Equipe's 'Don't Panik' is all about contrast in your movement. It's playful and incorporates lots of the drills you may have done previously. Have fun and stay weird ☺️
