I like how you switch sponsors half way through haha. Excellent drills. I feel as though I have learned a lot more about fine tuning my own slides through watching this. I like that you put all of your slides and not just the perfect ones because it allows the viewer to kind of say "Oh, that one wasn't as pretty as the other ones. Why not?" very helpful.
I'm not going to take the time to read through all of the comments and see if this has been addressed, but I'm working on my slides right now, so I throught I'd comment. Especially at the beginning, you were often sliding /past/ the bunker. Unless you're envisioning a snake attached to that bunker, past mistakes have forced me to stop that habit. I almost never superman slide anymore, unless I'm entering the snake from partway down, diving over the top. Looking good; I love the dedication!
looking really good. It's not that your copying any pro's style or form you just want to mirror what the pros do and from the look of it your watching them right. Keep up the good work and remember when you get into your bunker stay tight.
@B3nj0m4n Best thing to do is take the hopper off and the tank start it like that and then slowly add pieces to the gun you'll notice it really does help.. And you are right it can cut ur vision from seeing the bunkers and other players..
nice slides i prefer not to slide when i play every time i do i got shot but when i sprint and quickly get low it works a lot better for me even though I'm the tallest on my team I'm 5 foot 11 inches i play front with my invert mini.
unless your trying to wipe when you slide dont put your hand over your face when you run, you want to be looking at your opponents not the bunker, and dont put your hands down on the ground when you slide either, that can cause serious injury
@RidingYamaha47 fair enough :) was gonna say ive spoke to quite a few people and it does more harm than good coz it blocks your vision of the field and could stop you seeing a player moving to a bunker?? tbh i wish i had somewhere like this to practice lol.. i can superman without a marker.. as soon as i have a marker it just fucks up big time hahha
@MrChildplease23 because if a paintball hits your goggles/mask, the paint will most definitely break... covering the hard surfaces with softer tissue (your hand) increases the likelihood of a bounce...
do you live in FL? i was hearing those bugs and was like damn they are out late cuz its 4am right now and i live in tampa FL and it sounds just like that but when the vid stopped they stopped haha, nice sliding btw, gave me some good examples
when you were doing your superman slides at the beggining it looked like you were hurting yourself alot, but your knee slides are really good what position do you normally play? if i had to guess id say dorito or can
@abunjahal no sir, you are wrong. its because if you get lucky you can catch a paintball flying at 285 fps and use it to shoot your opponent out like i did. well almost lol i was shooting orange and i caught a green one, but when i shot it back it went just over his head. the one after caught him in the face.
@B3nj0m4n Its wierd lol... You just adapt it as u play.. So yes in a way and can become reflex. IT doesn't do any good but for some reason you just adapt it lmao...
The original concept started so that you could get a bounce on your hand rather than a break on your mask. If it does break on your hand, you can wipe the hit. Now most people do that for no reason.
i need to find some drills that dont involve a gun because in australia your not allowed to take your gun home until your 16 or something.... is there any tips for that?

This has inspired me to do some practice right now. Thank you
By far, 1:08 is my favourite. Smooth and natural!
Gun stays level as you run , quick as hell for a bigger dude, have a awsome sprint lol keep it up!
hey man real nice sliding
keep up the good work i wish i can slide like you, and had a backyard like that to train
Nice video. You do look like you are more comfortable sliding on the left side. Keep up the hard work.
Niceeeee!!!!!!!!! 😍 Can't wait to practice with this video!!
Nice drills man! Keep it up!
LOL! You have the craziest run!

Those are some really good drills though

as long as ur not gettin shot and ur getting ppl out faster ur doin good
nice drills man, keep it up
You have nice grass
nice slides i prefer not to slide when i play every time i do i got shot but when i sprint and quickly get low it works a lot better for me even though I'm the tallest on my team I'm 5 foot 11 inches i play front with my invert mini.
nice work man just make sure you keep your gun up
unless your trying to wipe when you slide dont put your hand over your face when you run, you want to be looking at your opponents not the bunker, and dont put your hands down on the ground when you slide either, that can cause serious injury
why does the white eclipse in the back have a ricer wing..tisk tisk
nice lawn man
ouchh catchin that knee before the chest on the superman slide.
You definitely have a lot of motivation and that says a lot of good things, fuck the haters.
Good stuff!
keep the hard work
hey at least ur working to perfect your game. respect. keep it up
Nice slides
Reminds me of Uncle Rico's videos from Napolian Dynamite
You shouldn't drop your hand on the ground first before your dives. It's simple physics. Don't move to look cool, move to play effectively.
Nice Video! Ignore all of the kids saying bad stuff about you.
U got more energy then me

Awesome vid, What gear r u wearing under ur pants?
when you were doing your superman slides at the beggining it looked like you were hurting yourself alot, but your knee slides are really good what position do you normally play? if i had to guess id say dorito or can
Nice vid
nice
kep up the work and also ur fast. did i say fast yet. haha
one thing i did notice every time you dropped down to slide you put your hand over your mask any reason for that or just reflex ??
Nice slides were you from
@abunjahal no sir, you are wrong. its because if you get lucky you can catch a paintball flying at 285 fps and use it to shoot your opponent out like i did. well almost lol i was shooting orange and i caught a green one, but when i shot it back it went just over his head. the one after caught him in the face.
Someone play with this kid!
i do this stuff every day..wonder what the neighbors think
I wish my backyard was flat... so then i could practice :(
i wish i had a larger back yard to practice slides =/
what foot do you kick off with on your hip slides???
@B3nj0m4n Its wierd lol... You just adapt it as u play.. So yes in a way and can become reflex. IT doesn't do any good but for some reason you just adapt it lmao...
The original concept started so that you could get a bounce on your hand rather than a break on your mask. If it does break on your hand, you can wipe the hit. Now most people do that for no reason.
But aside from that try to do your slides earlier, the whole point for them is to get into your bunker fast and low
i need to find some drills that dont involve a gun because in australia your not allowed to take your gun home until your 16 or something.... is there any tips for that?
ok thankyou :)
Anyone know a nice clean paint-ball field?
dont let your hopper bounce off the ground on supermans
Lol I find all sliding in paintball is just practice lol I use my couch in my house as a snake
your quick
@10000fistsd
yea same here
dude i was just thinkin the same fucking thing scrolled down and here this is ha
In what country/state?
Why do most people touch their lens before sliding???
nice bt dont cover ur face cant see paint streams
dive dont fall
why do players put their hand to their face like at 1:20?
i do it so i dont get shot in the mask... i hate cleaning it
