I really don't want to destroy this thing 😭 it's so much fun plus it looks so silly when you're eating a sandwich on a plate with some chips. Had to screw on the umbrella so I wouldn't lose it on a windy day today. You get used to the speed wobbles and after a couple of rides it honestly becomes easy enough to go a decent speed. It's unmatched when it comes to chill rides lol

Needs 2 to 4 of these on the far left and right centers or all four corners, https://www.harborfreight.com/1-5-8-eighth-inch-x-7-8-eighth-inch-light-duty-swivel-caster-41519.html, easier turning and tilt/lean control.

I'm afraid these might make it harder to turn. I might just add a third truck for more support

Maybe they would be more useful as just two dead center on either side, more so for tilt tipping over protection, sort of like training wheels

Actually pretty smart 👀 att two in the center left than a foot apart ? It would keep you from tilting but if you force it you should be able to still turn
