I stepped on a glass with my right foot 30 yrs ago. Pretty serious injury at the time. Nerves on the bottom of the foot are severed and I can only flex my pinkie toe downward. Basically it's a dead foot and I struggled with heel toe starting out. In my checkout ride from green to blue I was asked "how come you don't heel/toe" me "Well I have this injury....whaa...whaa" Inst "this ain't tennis, I suggest you figure it out if you plan on doing this sport"

He wasn't joking around and the tough love worked because I learned to heel/toe the next session out.
