Ya it is pretty much a perfect half pipe. World famous skate spot and I love it.

If anyone is ever in Albuquerque, I'm down for a few runs.

My last post kinda got swallowed at the end of last page. To reiterate, is this guy famous or well-known in the community? I love his style:

Cristobal Bahamonde. Is he really famous? I found some vids of him on YouTube, and he does stuff I've only seen Mullen do. Absolutely incredible.

This video guide on ollie is fantastic. It has slow motion, top down view so you can see how it's supposed to look like when you're on the board, and German instructions:

New Loaded slide gloves video, pretty nice http://youtube.com/watch?v=ipODDPoJi3o

Wow, that was sick.

I wanna be able to slide, but my board is long, flexible, and the wheels are big and soft. I only really need to do speed check slides, but I don't think my board right now is conducive to learning them. Neither is the next board I want!

I might have to get a slide board for my next board instead of a Vanguard, or get smaller wheels on the Vanguard and practice some speed check slides with it.

i'm having the same problem! i've been learning to slide on a regular shortboard which has been more manageable than my longboard.

i'm in the process of making slide gloves right now, i've shredded up the gloves i've been using. i just glued some corian samples to a garden glove...hopefully they will turn out all right.

this video makes me happy:
