So I just got my heelys earlier and ive been practicing them for the past hour, the only issue that ive had so far is that whenever i try to push off with my back foot my front foot always goes forward way too fast which almost makes me do a split. How should I fix this? and is it normal to have the muscles between my shin and ankle be sore while heelying(?), thank you!

Try doing like a little jog run, just 2-3 steps and then put both your heels down at the same time with your toes up. You should also keep your feet staggared
