Welcome to my blog. Sliding is my major passion in my life. A form of skateboarding that fulfils all that I enjoy in sport. It has a long history and is practised in many countries around the world.
To be a Slider a solid foundation is needed. Slide School 1 is the best place to start. Mastering these techniques in order produces the best results.
I skate at least three times a week, with my good friends and Slide fanatics Will Edgecombe and Piet Wiekens. Having friends to skate and learn with is invaluable. Will and Piet will also be contributors to this blog, so feel free to ask for their advice too.
We intend to showcase downhill sliding in its many forms, concentrating on the technical elements through discussion and film.
Don’t worry if you are not interested in doing all these styles yourself, just watch a few movies and take what you want. Sliding is not just a means of stopping or slowing down but a daunting physical and mental challenge.
