    Default superman nose manual slide

    I tried a slide today,
    or maybe it's not a sliide,
    idono,
    got the idea from a faltown video,
    you get speed,
    then put your gloves down on either side,
    put your knee on the nose of your board,
    and lean foreward so the back wheels came off,
    hard as **** to keep it going straight,
    and I found I usually ended up kneeling on the board,
    having to pull out a slide in a weiird position...

    yea I'll keep workiing on it...
    The sage, Longboard Buddha once said, "A tree spends 100% of its lifetime in a static environment and only after its reincarnation as a deck is it allowed to move at fast speeds...
    when allowed, the wood will give thankless service if
    allowed to flow."

    man thats way old, I can do a nose manual then drop back down and do a pendy, 360 or 180 out of the superman slide,

    I have never managed to do a slide with the tail truck up as was my goal, I think my main limiting factors are my lack of board control due to skill and my deck being 44"

    Everytime I try to initiate the slide my deck like flips over.
