Wait, is that a Madonna? We need a glossary...

I haven't done perelitos for some time now. They completely destroy my clothes and sneakers. I agree we need a tech sliding glossary. Finally got my stalefish powerslides

stalefish are so sexy. I've been working on hitting a toeside 180 standup but grabbing w/ my left hand by my front heel (i'm regular) and really holding them out. It's hard to not pull too hard and lift your wheel though. indy powerslides are cool too.

I've got some new pictures and a snazzy little video clip of Madonnas in action to help clear up any confusion:

This is a madonna:

This is a perilito (old school):

Sick, man! I was trying switch 3s yesterday, definitely felt awkward and took a few tumbles, hahah. Felt the same kind of fear as when I first learned BS 3s; I'm sure it's just a matter of confidence and commitment. Definitely want to learn them, though.

**jmasta** · 05-09-2009 03:48 PM

Does anyone else have an easier time landing some tricks switch?

I can do 1-handed 360's switch, but not reg

**Daniel M.** · 05-09-2009 07:05 PM

I was bustin some crazy switch laybacks yesterday, no problem doing those regular. I see some people do nose slides swicth rather than regular, but I find them easier regular.
