Sergio, just watched that clip, awesome!

slide clinic
On 7/10/2007 hc wrote in from United States  (71.198.nnn.nnn)

Damn Adam, can't believe that's 10 years ago!
I worked at BioRad in Hercules in 2000 and cruised the hills after work.
I wish I had went to the NCDSA scott creek 1999, was planning to go but something came up.

The first time I saw Cliff slide was at the Red Bull big air street luge at DeHaro st. (not sure what year that was, maybe 2000)

Anyways, a bay area slide clinic would be awesome.

Cliffsliding clinic
On 7/7/2007 Adam wrote in from United States  (208.64.nnn.nnn)

If this sliding clinic goes down on a Saturday I'd like to do a photo/video shoot for Ncdsa. It would be good to finally post some video clips of Cliff's namesake slide after all these years.

Here's one of Cliff's first sliding clinics that took place in Hercules, CA in April 1997. Click here for link Amongst those in attendance were your webmaster, his brother Dan, Noel the quad skate slider extraordinarie, Randal, and Steve (Deplo) Cozens.

Great to hear from you! The crew is in Santa Cruz today skating the new park with the full pipe. I haven't had the chance to hang with them either yet. Call 510-677-4490 for everyone's itinerary.

Newbies Looking For Guidance
On 7/6/2007 Craig wrote in from United States  (76.102.nnn.nnn)

-Mr. Coleman
Another member of this forum directed me to you cuz I was looking for some coaching for a crew I have together in Orinda. We're all becoming sophomores in high school, about four or five who are regulars and are serious about the sport, but the only guidance we have is youtube videos and these forums. What we really need is some lessons in person, if only just so we can learn how to slide the right way (only two of us have it down and we're fairly confident that its wrong). Seeing your name virtually everywhere this sport is posted online tells me you're the guy. If you're interested we'd love to coordinate some sort of get together, closer to september when everyone's back, and I could probably get a few guys from as far out as Danville to jump in if we set a date. I dunno, maybe you already have regular lessons and we could just start hittin em up. We're all in love with this sport, but to be honest we really have no idea what we're doing.

More fun!
On 6/13/2007 Cliff Coleman wrote in from United States  (67.124.nnn.nnn)

I recieved a phone call from Dave Rogers. He and I are going to be flying to Sweden from 8-2 till 8-7 for a skate festival there. Then the day after I return, I fly to the Paskapoo events in Calgary, Canada. I don't think the Slalomers understand how much prize money will be dished out! I then fly home and wait until 10-6/7-07 for "Pro Top 2". I promote the only Pro Top Spinning contest held. Then on 10-09-07, I fly to Brazil for almost 6 weeks.

I'm a happy guy!

What a wicked time. I dont remember the slide comp at all: mission accomplished! I had the chance to talk to Will J men to men, mission accomplished. I talked to Breamo, mission accomplished. But the best part is that i got to meet all of you guys.

Now its your turn to come to Montreal! We have a killing scene. Shawn Downey, Marc Seguin, Sasha, Jay...and a killing city!

Wow. NYC jam was great.

Sliders all around the planet: im a happy dude too!

The master of Slide teaches the kids
On 6/10/2007 Judi Oyama wrote in from United States  (68.125.nnn.nnn)


Yesterday's slide class was amazing. Even though the location for the class didn't have a hill the kids were able to learn the Coleman Slide a technique that will get you out of trouble if you are going to fast and need to brake at speeds. Miko and Mike Goldman helped and got tips. Never too old to learn. I had several returning students that have taken all three classes through parks and rec. Next class is planned but not confirmed for the Winter Schedule with Freestyle Champion and overall skateboarder Gary Holl. A beginning skate park class at the Santa Cruz Skate Park on November 10 th.

Cliff thanks for driving down and teaching the kids and the adults. It was great!
