Mark, Will, slideschool 2 please!!! I can't wait for those bluntslides. Frontside noseblunts and backside noseblunts are so sexy. I still can't manage to do one footed laybacks on the nose. I'm going crazy with them.

Good work on your progress!
Will and I have started filming Slideschool 2 but it will be a little while before its ready. We filmed the first part on our last session but did'nt get as far as we wanted because of the lure of ,no pressure, fun sliding.
It will contain these tricks from regular and switch (fakie), popped and drawn out:
hs, ts check,
hs, ts 180,
hs, ts 360,
hs, ts multi 360,
hs, ts nose 180, hs, ts tail 180,
hs, ts nose, hs, ts tail,
hs, ts nose 360, hs, ts tail 360.
We will add more once this is done but I think this covers the standard no hands tech.
ps. can you think of a better term than "popped"?

Sounds rad mark. How about one for 540's?

Better term? Held or drawn out maybe? Super Gnar? I know exactly what you mean though.

I should have that video finished tonight. A lot of it came out too dark though and the other session I didn't get to film for very long but it should still be cool.

Sweet, i'm starting to learn hs tail checks (i've landed one good one) and a video on that would definitly help out.

Thanks I'd totally left out plain 540s, even when I'm going through my own tech sessions. A glaring error in my list, I will put them in from now on.

Why is it that filming is never as easy as you would think and always takes way longer than expected?

**Sneakerholic** · 06-29-2009 08:16 PM

One foot powerslides today. I'm stoked...

**willabong** · 07-02-2009 07:22 AM

Yeah! That's sick man, fun trick.

Slideschool 2 is now underway, we will add to it as we film!

So how often do you guys change grip? I've had the same slide deck/griptape for 7 months now, thinkin its time to change.

Last session I was loosing my footing all over the place during standup 360s, think I might have torn something in my knee even because of it.
