Dude sounds like he has a PHD in skateboarding 😂

That feeling when you sliding on bs tailslide is incredible

This guy: "this is how to do this trick, 5 mins of useful video" Current Braille: "chitter chatter, tiny explanation, here's the new revive drop, hey look at what that guys doing, 15min video"

I've been trying backside tailslides for months now. Get on some and roll away on occasion. Taken some of the worst slams imaginable on a ledge in all of the years i've been skating. After watching your tutorial I can say that now I still can't back tail but it looks amazing.

learning front boards first is what really helped me with this trick. learning & getting used to keeping your shoulders straight and awkwardly only turning your lower body, as well as sliding backwards.

I wasnt feeling this video 5 months ago when I watched it. Some of it made sense but back tails didn’t. Now that I can really got backtails down this video makes more sense. And I show it to other people now

like with any trick, pointers can only go as far as your own brain can interpret them, but this definitely provided some inspo to learn!! cant wait for my ankle to heal up so I can get out and try and lock these down

Actually the backside 50-50 tutorial worked out really well, at least I locked in with my front truck. The wheelbase video also helped me a lot, I love your videos. Much love from Italy.

This video and your frontside flip tutorial helped me soooooo much i landed them both in a week. They booth just feel insanely good

I clicked the like button BEFORE watching! These backside tutorials are just what I needed! Thanks again Ben!

This was really helpful. Trying it on curbs was definitely useful to get the motion down (and surprisingly harder than I thought it would be, haha.) Been working on this trick off and on for about a month and making progress - landed a handful that weren't so bad. This inspired me to get out and learn them. Thanks, dude!

Got back into skating.. trying to learn some tricks.. glad Ben is here to help!

I like your Tutorials 👍 now this trick is on my „to do“ list

this is a dream trick of mine. thank you ben

A level of mastery he says, now you have made it more desirable.

you got these on lock! i definitely wanna give them a shot now!

How guys kick flip to backside tail down rails is a level of skateboard mastery I’ll never know.

I wish I was ready for these.. look super cool

mad helpful tutorial, gonna start trying to learn these as it's been too many damn years putting this trick off. Thanks for the help, you da man

Definitely got the inspo, and I’m gonna try the pointers and see if I can get it, thanks Ben!

Thanks. I dig your videos.

Actually the best trick tip

Ended up subscribing bro, crazy.. Respect

You're very helpful, Thanks!

What a cool tailslides you have! And those spots are PERFECT!

So chill video!!

thx dr. skateboard simple and efficient

used to practice backside 50-50 on curbs.. then to tail, then ^V^ skip straight to tail. The whole thing is ta shifty your back foot, like a frontside slappy calls for, but the other way with your foot gadget.

was learning front sid tailslides waiting for the bus today! haha

Hell yeah Ben! Another one

you pop ur casings off too!! nice!!

Im gonna try an learn these now. thanks for the inspo

Dude if I could only do that one trick I'd be happy to do them all day! I'm 38 and haven't seriously skated since I was 26. I can barely kick flip these days.

FIRST! Great tutorial as always dude.

Thanks Ben!

Flannels eh? Someone’s from Canada bud 🇨🇦

Great tutorial, my favorite trick, trick I most want to do but my b/s 180s are currently garbage😢

Ben can you sometimes mention what spot you are at in your videos? Would love to find some of these places thx!

Nice shoes!

i was thinking about these a lot lately because ive never been able to do them and most likely never will. However, if i was going to make a real effort to learn them i think the trick progression would go like this. Get solid with backside 180s, then backside 5050s, backside 5-0, backside smith, then finally backside tail.

I slammed the right side of my back on the ledge I was trying, skateboarding both sucks and is awesome at the same time. Wish I had filmed it tbh, good slam!

Damn Ben is good

Great videos! Glad I found your channel! #subsribed

Great tutorial! Subscribed! One question - Where are your eyes looking when sliding? If I try to look over my shoulder I stick

Hey man, what's your thoughts on drywall repair?

you have my like

I was trying to learn fs tail slides a wile and I give up and once I tryed again and It just clicked I would try same with back tails .maybe that is the way it works for me

Explained it better than braille

your grip still looks so clean, my city is full of red dirt, fucks up shoes and board.Nice video Ben, I'll try to get these fs and bs. ps.: your audio is good but you should get those mics that you put on your shirt!

The unwaxed curb tip is the way to go

Do soft wheels work against doing this trick? They are medium soft.

@Ben Degros good explanation sorry for asking this, do you still running the bones bushings they are good I'm gonna get them too I've got some problems with old ones that I have keep up I really like your videos, don't stop making 'em and sorry again about my english, I'm from Brazil so still learning !!

When did castiel start skating ?

My local spot has either a small step, or the big waxed ledge, fun fact, I actually landed kickflip bs tailslide before, and now I can't even do a regular bs tailslide even without sliding, part of this is because bs flip is a trick I really locked down. But now gotta put my balls on my shoulders and bring it to the waxed ledge, feel like this trick is way more about the mindset than about the actual movement 😃

How do you keep up with the slide

I had them for a week but then I lost them and I can’t work out what’s wrong I always stick even when I put wax on the ledge

hello, how many days can you learn bs tail ?

Hey I got that plaid flannel at costco

A tutorial in the streeeeets

Results may vary 🤣

hey ben where is this place??

10/10 pants

I'm sorry how much time was spent on learning the trick?

I can fs tail pretty well but this one seems infinitely harder.

Big tip always try to land with your back foot on the ledge with your back foot no matter what

Carpenter and Skateboarder, RAD.

lets see if i nail this one next week ;)

I could never back tail, always wanted to have this trick in my arsenal. Honestly I want to get back into skating just to be able to back tail

R u from Canada?

Bro I can only slide the very end of my tail. Getting my base plate to the ledge is so hard for me

have you seen mat berger's part on the etnies video "album" ?? BEST bs tail combo of life on the best spot to do it in. i wont spoil unless someone wants the hype for reason to buy that video

Most underrated BS tailslide tutorial

So my main problem is when i get in perfectly for the slide I'm not ready for it and I slip out. Trying to figure how to control the slide right now when i get in.

Are those Bronson RAWs? How are they? Can we expect a review soon?

I've been trying these on a curb. I can lock in pretty much every try, but whenever I take it to a waxed curb, i slip out... Can anyone give me some tips? Much appreciated

I wanna see you back tail bs kickflip out!

Torry pudwell out here with an 84 foot back tail

👍

Now only if I had short ledge

Hi Ben. Your back tails are so sick. I've skated the downtown plaza for the past decade but have never seen you there! Also, does your brother Ted still skate? He kinda disappeared after his amazing part in Strange Brew. Hope that your knee is better. Talk to you soon.

Ben can you show us slappy's. There's a perfect curb down the street from my house. It's already been waxed by other locals, but I'm still afraid to just ran into it. *ram

The problem is my bs 180s dont go backwards... :(

I can't get someone to help me please

the Canadian accent was strong on this one haha

Learn after backlips?

The unwaxed curb recommendation is kind of a YYMV bit of advice. If you get too comfortable knowing you're going to stop dead, it can lead to really bad habits in terms of where your back foot and body's weight and balance are when you start trying to slide for real. And that can lead to exactly the kind of slip outs Ben shows can happen. I'm actually more of a proponent of trying it on a slightly waxed surface so you learn sooner where proper balance and weight are. On a buttered ledge learning you're going to slip and fly out a majority of the time and it'll be more tedious to find the nuance in balance because the margin of error will be so skewed toward slipping out anyhow. On something that will slide a bit with proper balance you'll know when you're right. When you're wrong, you'll stop dead or slip out a bit but nothing too severe.

I've got them to fakie, and nollie back tail to reg, still working on getting a regular back tail slide back to reg. My heel keeps hitting and i go flying, or do a back tail stall. Any advice? Good tips Mr carpenter

I always slip out and land on my stomach as soon as I get into the back tail :(

Ben do you think you could of been pro or somthing in skateboarding if you dident quit back in the day

Scariest trick in the book to be honest

Learn backside 5-0s first. From there its just a little more rotation into the backside tailslide.

I did exactly this. Rolled up super slow to an unwaxed curb, popped a bs ollie, slapped my tail down and it slid like a motherfucker and I almost smashed my teeth out.

Nice! But for us born in the 70ies everything is unwaxed :)

Proper speed for bs tailslides: booking

com out straith is so more looking good than com out fakie

shit b skarry bruh Lol

I'm so sorry, this is front-side tail slide. That's what they told me the world call it now.. cuz when I Ollie bankside "board" sliding backwards, they call it a front-side slide. 🤔???

Ollie then b/s tail. Then land lol

this has to be fake, because bs tails are impossible.
