i think it helps some because you are used to balancing standing sideways on a board, but there is a different feel to it

Well your natural tendency to have your shoulder forward will help. Balance might help a bit. But other then that is it a whole different world. As for falling... I'm not going to lie to you... faceplants suck. But pain is temporary and pride is forever. Give it your all!
