Grinds and Slides

Grinds and Sides

Board slide Go up to the rail at a moderate speed then do a 90 so now your deck is going to land on the rail. Now be ready to slide. Most of this trick is just learning to keep your balance. Then when you get to the end of your rails turn your board so you can ride away smoothly.

50-50 This trick is pretty hard on a circle rail so try to find a ledge or something to start on. Ok first you have to be able to Ollie to the side. Now do that and get both your trucks on the ledge. Slide until the end and do a little manual off so your back truck hits the ground before the front.

5-0 This trick is closely related to the 50-50 but you only grind with the truck the whole time. This is very hard if you don't know how to manual very well. Do the same as the 50-50 but lean back some so only your back truck hits. Ride it all the way then land and ride away knowing you just landed it.
Noses slide Come up to your target at a slight angle then 90 sharply and put all your weight on the nose. Try to balance but the first few times you probaly wont slide at all. The curb you do this on has to be waxed pretty well before you try to do this trick too.
