(Except for the elbow which is the dreadlocks peoples' achilles.)

I can offer you some advice though. When you are in your tuck your back leg sticks out sideways. The point of being in a tuck is 1 to push all your weight over the front trucks to prevent wobbles and maxamise control and two it makes you aerodynamic so you can reach those high speeds. You need to turn that back knee and lock it either to your ankle or behind your front knee. This will make you more aero and is just like having one leg as far as the wind is concerned. Pull those arms right back to so your elbows aren't sticking right out and creating more drag. Some more advice? Get a full face helmet, dont skitch cars (it takes the point of DH skating away and is dangerous), knee pads, gloves and a shirt.

Enjoy
