Today i will show you how to board slide on a skateboard.
First of all, this is what a board slide looks like:
What you need:
-rail
-skateboard
-helmet
-any other desired pads
-skateboarding wax
Procedure:
Step 1 -
Use skateboarding wax and coat the rail with some wax. Wax helps the board slide along as you grind.
Step 2 -
Key Things To Remember When Board Sliding:
- Stance: Your stance means everything. Make sure your feet are in ollie position. If not, it will be very hard to balance.
- Balance: Balance is also key in board sliding. You have to be able to balance your body weight when sliding along the rail.
Step 3 -
Find a perfect rail for this grind. You want a rail that is a few inches lower than your maximum ollie height. For example, if you can ollie 6 inches, you would need a rail that is about 4 inches off the ground.
Step 4 -
Ride towards the rail like you would when doing a 50-50 grind. Ride alongside the rail and ollie on to it while turning your body 90 degrees.
Step 5 -
Balance your body along the rail. At the end of the rail, turn your body 90 degrees off the rail.
Now you can board slide
