This is a sliding video I made yesterday. I am in the orange helmet and I am riding my Alva Black Cadillac 36" with 62mm Rainskates Yellow Jackets in 98a.

Enjoy.

If the video doesnt work when you click it try copy/pasting it into your browser. If that doesnt work for some reason just save as. Then it will.

For extra fun say what you think the sound I made when I crashed sounds like...haha.

Pff, real men do 'em without gloves

But seriously pretty kickass, i started doing some of that kind of stuff, so far i can only do some small powerslide 180 kind of things down some small hills, good work.

The gloves have cutting board on the palms so they don't wear down. In case anyone was wondering.

Nope, no flatspots. If you actually know how to slide you dont ever get flatspots. Notice how we keep the wheels rolling during the slides.

If you like this check out gravityboard.com. I dont know if it's still there but there used to be this video of Sergio Yuppie doing non-stop 360 power slides down some crazy hill. There are some other videos on that site to check out though. Good stuff.

raaaaarr that reminds me of the old skool Powell vids ;)

I remember long time ago glueing blocks of wood of gardening gloves to do powerlides :D

always ended up with seriously coned wheels that you had to turn round though ;)

Really enjoyed the vid, nicely put together too ;)
