I keep falling off when I slide...I have a nice pair of Nike SB's so I don't think its my shoes.. Any help would be much appreciated.

Its your shoes.. if you wanna stick get a thin bottom flat vulcanized skate shoe. the soles on those Nike's sare too thick and wont flex and dont conform to the board as well
