Video Transcript

"This is Kyle Hovercamp in Skatechurch in Portland, Or on behalf of Expert Village this is a tutorial on how to do a boardslide on your skateboard. In this clip I'm going to show you how to put it all together so we already talked about where to have your feet and approaching the object to where your going to do the boardslide on. So your approaching it off your ollie turn 90 degrees get onto the object and we talked about sliding it and then popping out early or waiting to the end and riding off. All of this is all one foot motion it goes by pretty quick so you can't really concentrate on each part of the boardslide individually so you just have to commit and go for it practice it a lot. If you mess up on the ollie when your trying to get on the boardslide practice your ollie's onto it if you mess up on sliding practice your balance or if you mess up trying to get off of the rail and object just practice getting off. Practice doing backside and frontside boardslides and practice it to where your landing at, at almost every try."
