thank you guys for this instructional video. I have been longboarding for 25+ yrs but still have to dust the attic out each season by practicing the basics. At 51 , I have to go back thru all glovedowns & fundamentals to get back to the skill - mechanics level I had worked up to the previous Oct/Nov. In this vid you described + included key elements to puckslides which made that process quicker for me this year. 🛹🤙🏻😎
You guys are the best longboard youtubers out there definitely the most helpful and informational, I see lingboarding In my career and might even work with you guys one day!
I appreciate all the work you guys put into these videos. I have no one around me that freerides so learning is challenging but thanks to you guys I've been banging out decent heelside stand up slides. And just earlier did my first toeside standup. I'm stoked. Much love to yall. Now I just need some gloves so I can learn hands down. Any suggestions?
Go for it! But be careful, that hill is fast and very slippery! Also, the Park Rangers are cool enough to let you get about two full runs in, afterwards they will politely kick you out
Thanks, I was thinking about just practicing these slides near the bottom of the hill. I don't think the parking garage gives me enough speed to Coleman. But a toeside 180 is no problem. My technique might be off
You would want about a 70/30 split weight distribution. 70% of your weight should be shared between your front foot and your hand, while 30% is still on your back foot.
I started sliding with my longboard few months ago and I really catched on it. I started learning fast but... I sprained my shoulder while doing a fast toeside slide. Now I'm quite afraid of toeside slides and my shoulder isn't fully recovered even though I can use it normally. What can I do to slide as confident and good as I used to?
Do you need certain wheels to slide? I don't know how well this would work with rubber "road grippers (Divine)" wheels, I'm also about to order some gloves any recommendations?
I have a pretty heavy board (7 layers of bamboo. Yikes) with the 80mm orangatang wheels. Not the best setup. Will I still be able to learn how to slide?
That's not a space shuttle at 2:52 but an abandoned soviet project, much like the spaceshuttles, are you saying you where involved with the Soviets too?
Longboards tend to need more speed to do proper slides, meaning that there is a lot more momentum to carry you forward and draw out your slides. This, coupled with the longer wheelbases, makes for near constant rotation of the wheels during a slide. A flatspot occurs when you slide at a perfect 90° angle, causing the wheel to stop spinning and just sit there while being ground down into the ground. Since skateboards have shorter wheelbases, drawing out long slides without holding the board at 90° is trickier since the board reacts quicker to little movements. The longer wheelbases of longboards forces the rider to shift their weight slower, allowing for a more gradual curve in the slide, which in turn keeps the wheels spinning for longer. If you can keep your board and wheels from hitting that 90° angle, then you can avoid flatspots. Try pushing out your slides to about 45° since this is the optimal angle for sliding and keeping the wheels rotating at the same time. Hope this helps!
Most definitely! Slide gloves aren't meant to only be used with a single board type. They just allow you to do slides that would usually tear up your hands!
does sliding like that make flat spots on your wheels? i have no idea, but it looks like it would? im only here because i googled slider gloves because i saw some on facebook market place and had to know wtf they were lol
is sliding with longer or shorter wheelbase easier??? i've got the Loaded Overland and currently the longer wheelbase and Abec 11 Freerides 84a as wheels...this setup should work, right?....still cant manage to slide...maybe im too slow...lul....me so scared
Either wheelbase will work, but a shorter wheelbase can be easier for some people to learn on. The Loaded Overland has an in-between wheelbase of what is considered short and long. Since the Overland is a Topmount board, you can place your feet directly on top of the trucks to making sliding easier for you. At first it will feel like you are simply doing a pivot maneuver, but the sensation of swinging your body and board around will get you comfortable with the motion, which you can then try on longer and faster slides. A key component of sliding is having enough speed to the point where the board and your momentum do most of the work and it doesn't require too much physical effort on your part.
If you're worried wear a lid, good slide gloves, pads on elbows & knees, roller-derby pants and put on thick clothes. Even wear an overall so you don't worry about your shirt being pulled up if you're on your back. Maybe even borrow some MTB body armour. Then get out and try stuff, fall over, cock it up and you'll realise it's not as scary. Try to learn to slide on gloves, knee-pads & shoes when it goes wrong. Keep practicing & peeling the layers, you learn to both slide & deal with falls. Your confidence will come if you push yourself and invest time trying. The falling will drop off and the magic of board control will kick in. Just don't be tempted to go without your helmet, knee pads or gloves - there lies a route to pain & regret. Best of luck.
The Fat Free. Orange has the smoothest initiation into a slide, but slows you down quickly. Yellow has a bit more abrupt initiation into a slide, but slides much further. Purple is right in the middle. Most of our riders seem to enjoy using Orange Fat Frees the most since they roll smooth and flow in and out of slides so easily!
Abel luque If u can learn pendulums you technically already should have the capability to do a predrift as long as you take the corner right.. I also think this vid is just trying to help with free riding just on a straight road not around corners and stuff but idk man. Lol they title these things beginner/basic slides when 360 is something that takes a lot of practice, kind of triggered
You CAN let your momentum carry the slide for you, but as you get more experienced and used to the sensation of sliding, you will be able to do micro-adjustments by kicking your back leg out to slide more and control your speed and direction better!
Ethan: A coleman slide is the most necessary slide, if you don't learn how to do it you will actually die. Me (who has done triple digit standups but still can't coleman): 👁👄👁
Oh, okay. Duh. So google longboard and that specific model will come up, right? No. I wanted the model, but already found it. Using your logic the model name of my vehicle is...car. 🧐
Even this is a tutorial, The disclaimer "This video displays professionals performing stunts (Specially the ONE foot slide) which might be dangerous. Do not Try this at Home" is missing :D
Please make more tutorials for noob longboarders like meee, it helps a lot

Great channel, jsut wish some of the demos were regular! Loving the content
Sorry, most of our in-house riders are part of the Goof Troop :/
Goofy is where it's at bro!
I really feel that, i know more goofy riders than "regular"
@@LoadedBoards goofy gang goofy gang goofy gang goofy gang
That was very useful for me cuz I'm trying to make the coleman and the stand up slide. I will follow your (basics) and, make it!! Thx

sector 9 makes some pretty sick hand leathers, mine have lasted me a good 2 years so far
Sweet! That scenic overlook is going to be my next step up from parking garages. Thanks guys!

I love this channel. You guys are funny and awesome. Thanks for the tips. 😀👍
Coleman 0:48
how much weight should I be putting on my glove down hand for the coleman? should it just be hovering to help keep balance or do I want lots on there?
You would want about a 70/30 split weight distribution. 70% of your weight should be shared between your front foot and your hand, while 30% is still on your back foot.
Loaded, you guys are weird, but I still love you

What do you think Shawn White would tell you?
2:02
great stuff thanks for all your hep lads
when I do the coleman slide, the board usually goes into a 180, then to switch, how do I stop that?
Do you need certain wheels to slide? I don't know how well this would work with rubber "road grippers (Divine)" wheels, I'm also about to order some gloves any recommendations?
You can slide with any wheels but softer wheels - like your road grippers - are more grippy and less slidey.
stealing is illegal!! :((
I would ask china friendly:D
super cool to see Philipp at LoadedTV ;)
That's a great approach to life. Courtesy goes a long way.
What's that fancy deck above Camillos head I wonder...
I love you guys. Amazing!
I have a pretty heavy board (7 layers of bamboo. Yikes) with the 80mm orangatang wheels. Not the best setup. Will I still be able to learn how to slide?
So creative!! Good job
What board is the guy using on the colmen slide
wich durometer for the wheels do u use for the coleman slide? pls answer
That's not a space shuttle at 2:52 but an abandoned soviet project, much like the spaceshuttles, are you saying you where involved with the Soviets too?
great video, I can do all these but great tutorial
You should review some boards, im trying to get one but i dont know the brands and quality of them, waydifferent than regular skateboards
Dig it!
Winning. Right here.
This is sick, thank you
So how do you guys not flat spot the hell out of your wheels? I’m a street skater just trying to learn sweet power slides from long boarders.
Longboards tend to need more speed to do proper slides, meaning that there is a lot more momentum to carry you forward and draw out your slides. This, coupled with the longer wheelbases, makes for near constant rotation of the wheels during a slide.
A flatspot occurs when you slide at a perfect 90° angle, causing the wheel to stop spinning and just sit there while being ground down into the ground.

Hope this helps!
@@LoadedBoards ty my long board bros. prob saved me a new set of wheels!
Could i do those slide on 65mm 78a nineballs?
100% QUALITY!
I'm just trying to find what gloves to use for being a slider during Halloween.
Can you use skate slide gloves with cruiser boards?
Most definitely! Slide gloves aren't meant to only be used with a single board type. They just allow you to do slides that would usually tear up your hands!
Good video guys!

Does the length of my board matter? How loose or tight do my trucks need to be?

So the basic basic is coleman slides and pendulum? Basicly?
Thanks! Great!
What's the most slippery orangatang wheels? Not counting the skiffs

you put a fcking 360 and the predrift doesn't appears??

so when you do a Coleman you just let the board slide bu itself and not push out with your back foot like on toesides?

what percent of your weight is on your ground hand?
30% perhaps, as you start doing more of them you can mix it up. Different weight distribution provides a different feeling while sliding. Fun stuff!
