This Monday, we're bringing you tons of little details on how to be a better freerider and get your longboard sliding!
Sliding is always presented as a straight forward maneuver on a longboard. Though this may be true to a certain extent, we wanted to shed some light on the tiny nuances that usually can take months of years to figure out.

Luvaan Rooyan I appreciate you so much 😂
So what board are you using I want to get a board for sliding idk what to get I need help
@Owen Klingbeil ok thanks for the advice
Jeremy Suitor hey bro I just got my first real professional board and it’s my favorite out of about 20 different ones I’ve had I recommend getting the landyachtz osteon observer
@@jeremysuitor1398 hey dude, sorry for this delayed reply but i am not a professional or anything but its mostly about dimensions of the board rather than brand. Get a "normal" shape one for better slide or get a pin tail for more comfort. Also you need to get nice wheels for it to avoid getting flat spots. The best thing you could do is speak to a professional that doesnt work at a store and he/she will help you out.
Doing a push up during the push up slide was priceless haha!
When you don't have time to hit the gym, you've gotta make gains anywhere you can!
7:19 he legit did pushups mid way in a toeside slide omg lmao
Gosh I really wish I had that address of the super secret sliding spot location that is not 21st in Marine Street in Santa Monica. Welp, better luck next time I guess. Dope episode, if SYCLD wasn't soon, I would love to do some freeriding with the help of this video :)
Great help - just started Longboard at 50 after a 30 year break from skating!
Hey!
How is your longboard journey going?
That's crazy! I'm 58 and there is NO way I'm going to try this. I wish I had tried it 30 years ago though.
Same here, feels good to be back.
I'm 40 and starting! Already making a freebord with a $25 secondhand board.
Living in steep mountain country, and taking up Longboarding, after taking my kids skating, and decided to give it a shot.
Is epic.(!) Like surfing concrete and bitumen, yeah.
Recent mishap while pushing my limit on huge hills brought me to this tutorial, as the injuries might otherwise prevent me from skating as often....
Hindsight is 20/20. If only we had this knowledge available sooner, we could have helped hundreds of people avoid injuries and be riding at a higher level than ever.
Practice makes perfect and safety should always be first! Wear a helmet, knee pads and gloves whenever you are pushing your limits!
Aye... Solid advice, to be sure. It is excellent content and instruction on your channel, indeed. I have gained loads therefrom. Charge on lads.🤙😎
Will save me from what would have likely been quite a learning process, really......
Broken collarbone is healing well though....😀👍
Awesome, nicely explained for the newb longboarders like myself :)
Glad you enjoyed the video! Let us know if you have any questions or need further tips!
The weight distribution tip is gold for coleman slides. I finally nailed it guyz, thx! Stand-up stuffs, here I come
Awesome! It's a big factor in slide success! Glad you were able to finally get them locked down! Good luck mastering the rest of the sliding maneuvers!
Loaded decks are expensive, but the quality is so worth every cent. The dervish has become a classic.
Great video. It's exactly what I needed. Time to find my bunny slope
THANK YOU GUYS FOR YOUR VIDEOS!!!!!
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
Second that 😉👌
If it wasn't 36 degrees and snowing, I would go out practice this right now. I've been trying to get into free riding for some time now.
Haha, it's been 36 degrees here, but of the scorching kind. Literally getting hard to breathe out in the sun.
H4V0K1407 where you?
Australia
H4V0K1407 You know Joe was talking about **Farenheit**? right
Jamster 07 yeah Akron, Ohio. USA
Great job of walking us through it. Very useful! Thanks!
I'll check that street! this week!
Be careful of cars! It's a busy street during peak traffic hours, but thankfully visibility is pretty easy and clear from the top! Please be nice to the neighbors, they've been awesome and love to come out and watch!
"Throw a right-handed backhand, and then, a cross-slap like this"" instructional AND entertaining!!! 12:25
We feel that speaking in terms that most people can understand is important. Also, we learned alot from the Chappelle show back in the day
Very helpful, just getting into the basics of longboarding, and I just started to bomb some big hills and it's the most amazing experience. It's like your flying 3 inches off the ground, and your tips really help me!
One of the best tutorials out there! Keep it up, Loaded team! Give us more like this!
Shabbat Shalom
I absolutely love your sliding, especially that extended stretch slide.
Absolutely beautiful to watch!
Thank you for sharing and teaching us.
Shalom
Thanks for breaking it down and articulating this so well! Wish I first watched this aeons ago.
Thanks guys, I’m 48 yrs old and just bought a longboard for different exercise. I needed a strong tutorial like that to learn what I needed to keep from killing myself on it, lol. It’s perfect right now ‘cause my streets are empty; the COVID stay at home stuff is making a statement. Thanks again.
This is super awesome guys!!! Now I see why I still cannot break traction on my dervish... Crouching in the setup carve is so important! Good stuff.. Getting on it!
Yup! The little details can make all the difference! Don't forget to use the crouch > stand up > crouch again technique!
I love your fire edit 13:14 the way you swipe it
Physics, science, and technical - so good!
This is certainly the best how-to video on sliding I’ve seen
Awesome advice.
I've only just started trying to learn slides, so this is great timing.
Thanks!
No problem! Let us know if you are encountering any issues while you climb the learning curve. We can try and address those problems in a later episode!
Many thanks for the info. Old Guy here returning after a long hiatus from skating. This information is priceless. I'm going to start scouting out some hills and get bombing, sliding some downhills.
Thanks guys!! thats what Im try to learning now, I do heel 180s but not sliding the front wheels, Im working on that, but is hard!
Gabriel Del Pino Speed helps! Going faster makes your slides go further and longer, which means your front wheels will be sliding too. With a higher speed going into the slide, you have to push the board with strong but slow force, so you make sure you're easing into the slide and not doing a 180 too quickly.
Thank you so much for your videos guys. I've been riding extremely casually for a couple years and now I'm ready to step it up. Got some new gear, and despite being scared of falling I'm gonna go out and try some of these slides. Luckily I have lots of hills to start on.
Some good shit.
Helps a lot
Thnx.
You brothers are amazing . Thank you let's go n not break a bone
🤙👌💪
Thanks! Now get out there and don't break a leg!
This was really good, so many key details. Thanks Loaded
No problemo!
Haven't watched much since the Adam and Adam videos, I really liked those guys. This was great, super informative with the funny too.
Thanks! We hope to keep the education going in the spirit of Adam and Adam!
I live in texas the beat place I found to practice is a parking lot of a abandoned k-mart haha
That will work!
That 80/20 advice was game changing. Went out last night and was able to start sliding my board for the first time! Ate shit a couple times haha but I'm getting the hang of it now. Great vid!
hey guys! just stumbled on your videos! im a beginner longboarder who hasn't quite gotten comfortable on the board in all situations. Learned a lot from this tho! thanks!
Hell yeah! This was fun to watch and even more fun applying these techniques and putting them into play. It was the attention you guys gave to the little details on your how to do this, how to go about that, not to mention the chemistry you three crazy bastards share amongst you for comedic relief that gave me a special appreciation for this Loaded TV episode. Looking forward to seeing more of these and less of those, (wanna know what "those" I'm talking about? you know where to find me, hit me up we'll talk). Saludos a los Tres Trinches Tremendos( Camilo, Ethan, Perro Pro).
Super duper great explanation. Thanks a lot for the video. It explains mostly everything I needed to know. Got myself a Tan
Tien Flex 2 after watching this and love to come back on the board after almost 20 years (omg, sounds like I am old). THUMBS UP!
"In a very secret location."
*shows the street signs*
Shakeira Bell he also said the location
This video is fantastic! It's everything I wish I had been taught years ago. Thank you so much for all the helpful information🤜🤛👍👍
These videos are the best part of my mondays
So, I am new to longboarding and have ALWAYS wanted one. Today, I have now gotten my very first one. It is a WHOLE different world from regular skateboarding. I must admit, after a few adjustments to my trucks and wheels, I began to feel it. Love ya'lls videos. So informative. Any advice to a noob???
What in the world did I get myself into this month after purchasing a longboard. Well, I will be watching this video 20x cuz there's so much required in order to have fun.🤕.. Great vid!!
Great video guys, I am from Recife in Brazil South America, and as always you guys made a great vid again, The greatest thing was that you guys went back to skating after the video was done, that sounded like practice practice and practice, to become a good rider, awesome, that’s what makes people want to go skating.
See you guys in the next video...
Great video!! Finally found How to slide riding goofy. I’m trying to learn how to slide my electric skateboard Evolve Bamboo GT~~~ its a little more challenging to slide because I’m holding my remote with my right hand....and scary.....I’m in my 40s haven’t rode on a skateboard over 25 years haha. Can’t believe I found a new hobby that really enjoy in my mid 40s lol
That is epic! Sliding electric skateboards is almost a new genre of longboard sliding. Usually, weight is focused towards the back truck, causing the balance to be a little off.
Try to focus as much of your weight on your front foot while getting low. Pretty much, try to make your butt touch your front foot's heel. If you can get close, then you are in the perfect position to lean really hard on your heels into a deep turn and cause the board to do a big slide! Accelerating while sliding is a whole another thing and incredibly challenging to master.
Stoked to hear you getting into a fun new hobby! Let us know if there are any other questions of topics we should cover in future videos!
What are the gloves you guys are wearing. I'm the same. Just got an E- board and wouldn't mind a slid or two lol
This is the most helpful video I've seen
Thanks! Do you have any other longboarding related topics you could use help with?
LoadedNewsletter I've always been confused about reverse kingpin trucks. Are certain trucks specialized to be put on reverse, or can I just take any trucks and reverse them. Also do they take away the carving aspect of the board and do they make slide intiation easier? Thanks again for the awesome videos!
I especially like the explosions :D Thanks for the video!
Your videos are helping me, a lot!! Thank you! Keep up the good work!!
No worries! Happy to help!
Great vid. I watched it, went out and did it!
Such an informative video and really stressing each point very well. So keen to improve my slides now !
very awesome vid guys very fun to watch with your personality
gr8 vid guys. ive been eboarding going onto a year and jst starting to get into that kind of slipping and sliding. it looks so sick.
I needed this. Thank you!
Thank you for including hanging feet off the board and how to fix wobbling ✌🏼
awesome video, really thorough! thanks guys
Hey Ethan. We met at the central mass skate festival a few years back. I was the guy with the homemade deck with the makeshift underglow on my board. Hmu sometime if that's possible. I haven't stopped boarding since and I just finished a 35 mile distance run from my town if nashua NH to Nottingham NH it took 3 hours and 20 mins. Thank the gods for kegals
Bruh thanks for these vids. I’m kinda new to skateboarding and this really helped. Thanks again man.
Thanks! Good info 👍 I'm just beginning so I just learned ALOT.
I currently live in Dallas and I know what Ethan means. I found me a little street off of Midway rd. Hillside checks I can do, toeside checks not so much(scare) and I can only dream about riding switch, I am an old man. Cool tutorial.
Toeside checks can take a while to figure out! Try watching Ethan's trick tip on Toeside/Backside checks to get a good idea of what needs improvement!
ruclips.net/video/z8gfrq75fwQ/видео.html
I have watched it, that is how I have been learning, thanks.
Excellent explaining
Thanks ! Very neat
Thanks! Glad we made sense!
I am currently practicing in Texas with a lot of pushing and finding a truck to stop. That’s wild. No cap
Sick. I found this information very useful indeed.🤙🤙🤙
What's that board you're using? Really like the shape. Nice vid, thanks for that
👍 Great Job, just learning how to slide!
I wish I had this video back when I skated. Anyways great video as always.
really good video lads thanks for the advise!!
Thanks gays))) that's was amaizing for understand))) more informative, love ya
Very nice video for all kinds of skaters
Don't have a hill with an curve at the end but ill try it on an wide road. Thx alot for this video really helpful!!
thanks!i did it, but i also broke my arm :/
I’d like to thank you for making this video it really helped me learn new things. 😭☯️☯️😈
THANKS a lot : )
Have FUN !!!!
Ethan´s T-shirt is the shit !!! What a great video guys
#EverybodySkates is amazing!
Thx for the tips ... im geed up to try slides utilitizing my arms n shoulder.
Speed wobble isn’t a human effect. Speed wobble is resonance between the two trucks. Solve this by the front truck Lucy, the rear truck Tighty. I’ve seen a bag of potatoes get speed wobble on a deck. It’s not a human error, it’s a set up error. My top speed is 50 mph on an evo, zero wobble. The Coleman slide is very important to learn. I’ve gotten out of some bad situations with a complete shut down Coleman slide. These guys have some great Coleman slide tips. Good stuff.
melo7849 great advice, and very true, but that’s for downhill because when riding switch you will amplify your wobbles by not tightening your trucks. So for freeride I wouldn’t do this or maybe just slightly keep that back tighter and not go too extreme with this tip. Also, if you ride a lot on a directional board like the evo, your trucks naturally will have more squishy front truck bushings from you weight always turning from the front and you back truck bushing being less broken in and deformed therefore, I feel like your board will naturally suited to your needs and prevent wobble if you ride a certain way and for freerding you don’t even need to tell front from back and for this reason your setup naturally without adjustment with wear 50/50 throughout your 2 trucks. This is y my rule of thumb is
-Whatever you do to one truck, do it to the other...
if you do your method don’t go over the top with it because your back bushing will deform, instead, if you absolutely need to, ride harder bushings in ur back truck
Accidently went into a slide bombing a local hill on my new basalt tesseract, if I hadn't come across this vid my skeleton would be spaghetti right now.
Cheers guys ;)
Glad we could help you avoid becoming road pasta!
This was helpful if others who in Santa Monica,San Pedro Long Beach want to learn and skate let me kno.
Come join the DockeSessionLA crew in Venice Beach at 3pm every Sunday! We meet next to the Venice Skatepark!

Thank you this has been really helpful
You guys are the best! Love your tutorials! Awesome! Give us more of them!
We love making them! Do you have anything specific in mind?
Thank you, this is pretty sweet!! 😁
What hardness of wheels do you recommend for best sliding ability and grip all round, I am riding Royce 75mm 82 A Urethane they seem to slide better when they get hot, shouldn't they grip more when hot?I am in South Africa and skate alone, so your input would be greatly appreciated
what board are you using in this video?
I found this helpful. Maybe you could talk a little bit about wheel selection/ board set up ... Maybe you already have, gonna go check.
keep it up ETHAN and CAMILIO!
I love finding old GOLD
Awesome Vid! What boards did you use in the video?
Thanks for the video! I've never tried sliding or hills. Lol my longboard is from Big 5 sporting goods. Had it a few years. Not sure it will slide. I push it around the hood. Any board/truck/wheel recommendations to get me started? I stay in L.A.
Jay Phive take a look at tactics boardshop- globe geminon evo or some of their other cheap freeride boards
jackhammer1234 Wow that's a really nice board! I'm about to order one now while it's on sale. Thanks!
Yo! You guys just said everything i needed to know right now, and in a very convincing entertaining way! Ridesafe guys. Btw i wanna know thes guys name, would love to follow them
What wheels were you using on your board, looking to add some slidability on my Icarus
Would you say that the type of wheel you have matters for slides? If I had a board like yours, where can I get wheels that are easy to slide with?
Also where can I get that special pushing grip tape that you have?
I am wondering: what about sliding when it's wet? Can you still do it then, or is it too dangerous?
Great video by the way! Awesome editing starting at 13:07, haha
Sliding in the wet is a good way to get sideways quickly, but it is extremely slippery and will take a while to master! Try practicing glove down slides in the rain to get the right idea on how to distribute your weight and control your movements to steer your slides.
When you transition to dry pavement, just keep in mind that you will have to go a bit faster and push harder with your legs to make the slides happen!
Thanks for enjoying the video! We had a lot of fun making it! Good luck!
sliding when its wet is how i learned stand up 180's heel and toeside,both way's,its easier because you can take it slow,so you learn technique,just increase speed gradually,its best when the surface is just damp rather than wet.obviously your gonna want more speed when it dries out
Love you guys😂😂 so funny
Great video! Just wanted to know if you guys have pant discounts, cause after all he botched slides starting out, gonna need few pants. 😂 Once again, thanks for advice!
GREAT VIDEO!
Good Beginner wheels I would say are Skittles, Butter balls, Butter sauce. I’m riding skittles atm and I’m able to slide stand up 180s almost standing still 😜
Those are great starter wheels!
What do you think butter balls or skittles
sob. you guys are my heroes. tear.
Hey guys! I help run a local university longboard club in Sheffield, England and I've been trying to run beginner sessions for sliding and downhill recently, going well so far getting new people into the sport :) Any tips on teaching people to slide for the first time or getting people stoked to come to sessions?
Much love for this series and your products, love my tesseract to bits
Thats awesome to hear! Some crucial beginner tips would be:
Teach glove down slides first, safest way to slow down and exhilarating when you're first starting out
Use spacers for smoother slides with little to no chop
Loosen your trucks for easier and deeper turns to help initiate slides
Stay low as much as possible, can be difficult to get used to for beginners so you need to constantly remind skaters of this point
Wear clothes you don't mind ruining and keep your butt/knees off the ground!
Drop the back knee inwards, don't have your legs looking like two pillars. Front leg is straight (ish) up and down, back leg is leaned towards the front leg.
These are some of the main issues beginners run into. It's a lot to remember in the beginning, but if you can get them to learn proper technique when starting out, it will make future sliding much easier.
Hope this helps!
1) Some of my longboards have Cone-Shaped wheels, is that for easier sliding?
2) Some of my longboards are reverse-kingpin, some are not... is reverse king-pin more stable and less easy to turn?
Thanks !!!
Cone shaped wheels is normal after tons of riding. It's how offset wheels (bearings close to one side of the wheel than the other) tend to wear over time. These should be fantastic for learning to slide!
Reverse Kingpin trucks are more stable at high speeds and offer more range of turning to be able to set up nicely for a slide. We believe they make sliding easier, but in the end, it always comes down to what you are the most comfortable on!
1: it makes it grippier, actually. buy round wheels for sliding.
2: reverse kingpin is more stable down hills.
So I push mongo and my weight is focused on my back foot. Idk why, guess it’s how I learned when learning to skate. Would I have to ride switch to switch weight distribution? Or is it easier to just try and shift all my weight forward? Not sure if it’s a dumb question but riding switch going very fast is kinda intimidating
5:37 basically its a pre fall while the force pushing you towards the front is in motion, the sitting position that he said will prevent you from bailing or throwing you infront in that way you will still be in the board while in motion.
The push ups while sliding are insane wtffff such a master
Skating makes every day leg-day. Gotta get them upper body gains some how!
