@Jake
Yeah, i've watched it a couple of times before. I'm slowly getting better at riding switch and Coleman-ing back into my stance (which is goofy). At first, I wasn't real comfortable riding switch, but I'm getting better.

YouTube - How To Coleman Slide

I didn't really implement the part where he has he knees tilted inward a little bit, but the whole getting onto the sides of your shoes really helped. I practiced off my board like coleman says in the vid and just yesterday I was able to rip a couple 20ft backside pendys at the local SLAB slide laboratory.

Customs is the love of my life despite the fact that she's getting 'railed' by lots of other dudes on a regular basis. At least you guys are cool. Can't wait to get back to Houston so we can eiffel tower that ho.
