How to Frontside Slide (Carver Surf Skate Tutorial)
Спорт
The frontside power slide is one of those maneuvers that emulate surfing to its core. Not just limited to your driveway, this week I'm giving you the full guide from flatground to doing slides on a ramp!!. The front truck from your surf skate makes these performable anywhere your board goes.
Setup:
10” Chris Miller Welcome Deck
Carver C5 Trucks
Sector 9 70mm 75a wheels (hybrid setup. If you want strictly a park board, you can go a little harder in durometer)

Thanks for the videos at 60, I just started skating a few months ago for surf improvement. I am addicted and lucky to have a daily training area near my home.Watching another goofy footer that actually surfs is so valuable.
I can so see your surf skills in your skating, the bent rear knee, body positions ect. Looks rad as hell
Great point about the down-the-line setup, it is definitely tougher to do but way more accurate as a surf simulation.

I don’t claim to be a coach or a professional. Skateboarding is a dangerous activity . These are just things that have worked for me. If you’d like anything explained in further detail, comment below!

Just threw on 65mm 81a wheels on a custom 34" equipped with a rear CX barrel cone and Old Spice Type X with TKP street trucks on HRB 95a cone barrel on a 18.5wb. Sooo much frekin fun however this setup is basically only street. The terrain is like mars where I live and we got no skatepark. We basically do what we want here hahahaha 🤭🤘🔥

Hey brother. Thank you for the amazing content. 2 Questions. What is your perfect setup for bowl riding and whats your perfect setup for surf skating flat/cruising
@WorkForAvocados
2 жыл бұрын
Hey Danny thanks for watching. For bowl riding I like riding a hybrid deck. Personal, I ride a Welcome pool shape. They aren’t a surf skate brand, but I like their cruiser template that still has somewhat of a nose to lock me in a bit more on bigger walls. I don’t like a tremendous amount of tail as I like to put more weight on my turns. Wheel wise I would recommend something in the 65-70mm range with a bit more hardness to them than traditional surf skate wheels. The stock wheels are awesome for cruising over gnarly roads and sidewalks, but the harder wheels allow me to slide a lot more on concrete and coping. Sounds like a good video idea actually, maybe I’ll put one together. Thanks again for watching!
Hi , thanks so much for your awesome videos. Old far here but in excellent shape (55 years old) surfed in Morocco since I was 10 and now stuck in Atlanta. Sought Slide SurfSkate and learning how to use it like a surf environment in surf park. I bought protective equipment, and trying my best. Also where can I buy that awesome pendant/chain you have on? :-) Again thank you for the great content.

Sorry for the late response! Hope the surf skate journey is going well for you. Honestly, I got it as a gift one day and have no idea where they got it from. Happy shredding dude! Hoping to catch some waves in Morocco one day, it’s a bucket lister. How do you like the parks in Atlanta? Thanks for watching!

Hey Timothy! It’s a hamboard 6’6 (yes) Classic. Super fun board. You can even land paddle with them. You can’t pump on them, but they are awesome for cross stepping. I’ve got a whole video about it, check it out 🤙🏼

Wheel recs?
I always get thrown forward off my board when frontside sliding, especially when performing a 180 frontside snap/slide. I feel like when I do land the trick its out of luck. Any tips to prevent from getting sent forward?

I would say practice getting lower. Try smaller slides and as you feel more comfortable you can build up slide distance. Really try to engage your leg/core muscles and that should help a lot!
Wheels? Are the stock black carver 69mm wheels good for concrete ramps?
@WorkForAvocados

I ride 75mm 70a sector 9 wheels. I find the stock roundhouse carvers to be great for roads or sidewalks but they don’t slide as easily at a skatepark. I haven’t personally tried their park formula series but with more hardness I’m able to keep the momentum going during my turns and it feels a lot more fluid
