    Default Im new to this whole sliding deal

    but i have really loose RIIs (really loose) i can turn a complete 180 degrees in one little street cement square on my Landy cheif. I ride flashbacks 78a and i have leather gloves that have slidin holes in them already (to lazy to get the plastic cutting board). Will tightening up my trucks help me slide. I think they will but i love bombing on loose trucks. U can push the hardest carves. It really reminds me of snowboarding I love it! so ya tighter trucks will help?

    Tighter trucks will help yeah but it's not the whole thing.
    Begin with 85a wheels like frizzlefry said, it will be easier
    After lots of training you'll be able to pull reverses with 3dm avalon 72a
    Good luck
