Pop turn frontside or backside 90 degrees make sure to pop high so u can get over the obstacle. Then set the board on the ledge or rail, nudge it off and roll away stylish.

my friend just gave me some pretty good advice for tailslides which helped me learn em...
when your getting into them you ollie like your gonna do a 5-0..this helps you get over the thing your going to grind..when your over it, turn the rest of the 90 degrees to get into the tailslide...
in the beginning its ok, if not good, to hit the back truck just before you get into place...
i suggest that one should be pretty conformtable with 5-0s before moving onto tailslides....i hope this advice helps you..good luck

When i do tailslides, i dont seem to slide i just stop even though im goin fast.
Sumtimes i do slidea lil but then i bail or my front end touches the floor.
I cant keep balanced

comitting to the slide is very important...also make sure youre getting into it right..you may need to work on that..

once you get on there try to lean back alot and put a little pressure on the board with the foot that isnt on the tail.
thats what i did when i started learning them.
