well what's a lazy boy then?

and it can't be a pendy b/c the board only rotates 90 degrees and then back

from the sliding glossary: "Pendulum: Any slide that rotates a full 180 then rotates back."

i always thought a lazy boy slide was when you take one foot off and cross your legs, like in a recliner or something.

laybacks are generally referrring to one hand, and board doesn't have to go fully 180 to pendulum back. i know if you do what you're talking about in switch (fairly more difficult then in regular stance)...it's called a G-slide, at least that's what i've heard on the gravity forums, coined by breamo and his buds if i'm correct.

it seems like it'd be hard to get your hips up like in a sergio layback with both hands on the ground, non? post some pics or vids if you can bro.

you don't actually need to get your hips up for this one. i learned this slide accidentally one day when i was trying to learn the sergio layback. i think it's a lot more comfortable with two hands and doesn't jack up your shoulders

i'm just trying to find out if it has an actual name, since i've never really seen anyone else do it
