^WTF?
Comparatively you need for big speed, but it depends on the distance. The balance is the most important i think, like haywire said.

it depends on what type of edge grind, are you talking about the 90 degree edges like Eddeman grinded in Deviate? or the type I did in UnorthodoX that are kind of pointy?

if you are doing an Eddeman styled edge grind then your going to have trouble grinding for long distances, it's possible but really annoying.

if you are doing my type of edge grinds then you can grind for however long the edge is and you will never get stuck and unless there is a harsh turn, you won't need to press anything given your front tire is hanging over the side with the vertical face.
