When I got to double peg a ledge I can only get the front peg on and the back peg hits the box, any suggestions how to fix that?

try coming from a slight angle and leaning in to thr box when your front peg gets on
For me, double pegs were really hard so I learned feeble first and it helped me get a better feel for grinds, and it made it easier to learn them, so maybe try feebles I'd you still are stuck

Don't try them unless you're willing to dent the shit out of your CS.

Put the front tire as close to the ledge as you can.

They are really pretty easy.

Is the balance for a feeble hard to get used to? I tried just standing in 1 one and it felt really weird
