Sliding & Stopping (1660 Posts) Topic Info slide gloves On 7/15/2005 Matt wrote in from United States  (68.44.nnn.nnn) alright i made a pair of what i thought were heavy duty slide gloves. i found the heaviest duty gloves and chopped up a cutting board and melted it on the gloves like the instructions say on faltownskateboards.com but i ripped big holes into them 2 weeks later. i need to buy slide gloves now but i cant find any... gravitys is always out of stock and lushlonboards is in UK and i live in the US so shipping is riducuolous, if anyone knows a goo website to find slide gloves email or post back thanks!     Rate post 211811 !

The guy in the yellow T-shirt does one into a heelside 360 and then a bit further in the guy in the white t-shirt uses a surrender to link two 360's (and goes for a third but looses his footing) http://205.209.134.30/~herokiz/stokemagazine/thepark.wmv Hope it works and hope it helps!     Rate post 211788 !

The feet stay on the board in a regular surrender but the legs are stretched out. From there its possible to whip the board around you in either direction into pendulems or 360's. Its also one of the best ways to link multiple spins when going heelside as you just keep whipping the board around in front of you in a kinda slingshot style! Hope that helps...looking forward to seeing the video from faltown!     Rate post 211773 !

Can not believe how imaginative those guys are with their slides! I think i get your explanation Cliff. So if he is going under the deck i assume that it is a Surrender with one foot on the tail and the board in a manual??? Is that correct...and then you kind of go under around and up the other side!? HAHA thats nuts. Props to mark!     Rate post 211626 ! Best-Of Ncdsa (0)   Informative (0)   Abuse(0)   Flag Moderators (0) Fabrice, try this! On 7/13/2005 Cliff Coleman wrote in from United Kingdom  (82.32.nnn.nnn) F, For the "Pig in a Blanket Roll", start with a surrender. Then take the front foot off. Next, with your back to the ground, roll under the deck while ballanced on two hands and the remaining foot on the tail. At this point, you will be actually riding backwards, under your board. Continue the roll undernath the deck until you roll out from the other side and back above the board. Then put your foot that is not on the deck back on at the rear and move the other foot to the nose. Then stand back up. I told you it was nuts and that I couldn't explain it very well. I hope the video gets posted! F, Sergio wants to visit San Diego probably in August. We get back on July 19th. You really need to get to Berkeley to skate with us!! Stay in touch via e=mail.

Sliding shouldnt be easy anyway. Use your body strenght to push the slide bro. The only thing i had to say is that the Stinger SUCKS at sliding. Theyre good for the aggressive carve but not for the pure sliding techs. I use Gravity Sergios or Deatbox. Jah! Sliding bitcheeeeees!!!     Rate post 211564 !

The gumsballs seem to slide better. Is there any thing I should do. I heard that if I use sand paper i could take a couple of the layers off the wheel, and they will slide better.
