  • The frontside power slide is one of those maneuvers that emulate surfing to its core. Not just limited to your driveway, this week I'm giving you the full guide from flatground to doing slides on a ramp!!. The front truck from your surf skate makes these performable anywhere your board goes.
    Setup:
    10” Chris Miller Welcome Deck
    Carver C5 Trucks
    Sector 9 70mm 75a wheels (hybrid setup. If you want strictly a park board, you can go a little harder in durometer)

    Thanks for the videos at 60, I just started skating a few months ago for surf improvement. I am addicted and lucky to have a daily training area near my home.Watching another goofy footer that actually surfs is so valuable.

    Great point about the down-the-line setup, it is definitely tougher to do but way more accurate as a surf simulation.

    Hey brother. Thank you for the amazing content. 2 Questions. What is your perfect setup for bowl riding and whats your perfect setup for surf skating flat/cruising

    • @WorkForAvocados
      @WorkForAvocados  2 года назад +2

      Hey Danny thanks for watching. For bowl riding I like riding a hybrid deck. Personal, I ride a Welcome pool shape. They aren’t a surf skate brand, but I like their cruiser template that still has somewhat of a nose to lock me in a bit more on bigger walls. I don’t like a tremendous amount of tail as I like to put more weight on my turns. Wheel wise I would recommend something in the 65-70mm range with a bit more hardness to them than traditional surf skate wheels. The stock wheels are awesome for cruising over gnarly roads and sidewalks, but the harder wheels allow me to slide a lot more on concrete and coping. Sounds like a good video idea actually, maybe I’ll put one together. Thanks again for watching!

    Hi , thanks so much for your awesome videos. Old far here but in excellent shape (55 years old) surfed in Morocco since I was 10 and now stuck in Atlanta. Sought Slide SurfSkate and learning how to use it like a surf environment in surf park. I bought protective equipment, and trying my best. Also where can I buy that awesome pendant/chain you have on? :-) Again thank you for the great content.

      Sorry for the late response! Hope the surf skate journey is going well for you. Honestly, I got it as a gift one day and have no idea where they got it from. Happy shredding dude! Hoping to catch some waves in Morocco one day, it’s a bucket lister. How do you like the parks in Atlanta? Thanks for watching!

    • @WorkForAvocados
      @WorkForAvocados  2 года назад +1

      I would say practice getting lower. Try smaller slides and as you feel more comfortable you can build up slide distance. Really try to engage your leg/core muscles and that should help a lot!

      I ride 75mm 70a sector 9 wheels. I find the stock roundhouse carvers to be great for roads or sidewalks but they don’t slide as easily at a skatepark. I haven’t personally tried their park formula series but with more hardness I’m able to keep the momentum going during my turns and it feels a lot more fluid
