In this trick tip video Alex Hannigan will teach you everything you need to know to properly slide your longboard! Take a virtual lesson with Alex as he teaches two skaters the basics. You’ll learn proper body position and foot placement to start sliding. Alex will explain how to pre-carve and break down slides like the “push-up” slides, Coleman Slides, heelside and toeside slides, 180 standup slides and check slides. Don’t forget your gloves and helmet! Let us know in the comments what other slides you want Alex to teach you in our next trick tip video.
