Want to learn slides on a Cruiser board? Check out this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jrl3lJaFtq7YfKM.html

Me: *falls* My longboard: Adios

Please teach us how to slide out of 2020

This is a great way to show people how to slide. A lot of videos just show people who know how to slide just doing it, and explaining how they did it. I think its really good that you showed some people actually learning how to slide for the first time, then addressed exactly what went wrong. I'm sure a lot of people have similar issues trying to learn sliding, but I never see any videos showing those specific issues in action. So this is giving them a great visual representation of what a lot of people are struggling with, and a more direct explanation. On top of that, Alex is mentioning a lot of things other videos aren't mentioning. Also, Stickerbrush Symphony

4:22 "that sound, Im not gonna try to imitate it" *tries to imitate it*

Legit this is the video I’ve needed

Best slide tutorial, in the whole universe propably.

Alex is honestly such a great teacher. He's encouraging and gives specific advice. This one video has been more helpful than a dozen others on sliding because it really simplified it down to what you need to do and pay attention to as a beginner. Thank you.

Yooooo Landy, thank you!!! I just came back from a park hill and i did it! its been two years without knowing how to slide and today i just went full out, i lost the fear for the speed because now i can slide the shit out of my board, i got confident and went full down that hill, slid full body out like a push-up, i slid like 10 full metres! Thank you so much whoever this guy is, you are an amazing teacher and thank you Landy. I just need to practice stand ups more because i still cant do them properly but my boy, i can slide gloves down like i never did before

Alex, you are an amazing teacher. I am 54 and learning to longboard. I used your 'pre-carve' cue and it really helped me to learn to slide -- still learning!! Thanks!

11:17 this is the best transition ever you can fight me on that

I think Alex would be the coolest guy to spend a day with... That is just a dream for me

I'm not even going to try to immitate it! 2 seconds later: "chhhhhhaaakchaaachuuuu" This video is awesome I need to get me some of those gloves!

I hope John is happy with his portrayal, because his experience helped me alot with my own issues! It's refreshing to see a realistic portrayal of beginners learning

I don’t comment on things usually, but all last summer I tried learning to slide and just kept getting owies. I watched all kinds of videos, and I typically catch on to things really easy and fast and I just could not grasp it. I watched this one and literally went out and was able to do both heel-side and toe-side hand slides. I think it really helped watching people that didn’t really know how to slide actually learn and you coaching them. Tons of details I’ve never heard before. You should do more instructional videos. Thank you.

This dude is always so friendly and is such a good teacher! He just loves what he does and is willing to teach others how to do what he loves, and it's dope It's so awesome when the greats teach others how to also be great

I love that it doesn't have people that already know but people who are learning.

Love the dissection of the thumbnail, now I know what's what. Never knew what the title was till now

"I wasnt expecting that." - oh yeah we know that feeling very well

"If you're getting scared you forget what you need to do" - the biggest gem!

I’m 25 years old and I never even thought of riding a board until I got recommended a Landyachtz video a month ago. You guys produce the best videos ever and are BEAST at sliding! Now I have a “meowjuana”tugboat and I’m in love with it. I’ve been waiting for a tutorial about sliding from you guys. THANK YOU GUYS!

Mad props on the teaching style! Positive yet constructive comments! Those dudes will be skaters for life now!

This hands down the best sliding video on youtube

This video comes 10 years later but is great for my comeback to longboarding

This format is the ultimate way of teaching via yt, watching real people learn and real mistakes

OMG! I CANT WAIT FOR THIS PREMIERE! Landyachtz has been all that i've been watching these days... i've got 5 second hand boards from them since they've been out of stock... Can't wait to get there dance boards soon. Learning slides has been fun but having them teach is going to be a trip! :3

You are the best Hannigan!! I’m on my 34 years old and I am doing more now than when I was 15. Thanks man and Landyachtz to give us this. So much fun with my Dinghy and my longboard. Best brand ever.

No disrespect to longboarders or anything. As a street skater, its pretty funny seeing a longboarder with a crazy man's "tinfoil hat" style helmet. Gave me a chuckle. You guys are definitely gnarly in your own way. I've seen some of those crazy downhill videos. Respect.

Been practicing slides without much progress the past six months. Watched this video and within a week I've hit multiple hands down slides. Great stuff guys thank you👍😁

I like how alex is a chill dude

Without doubt THE BEST slide tutorial on KZfaq. Alex is so patient and positive, and clearly just out to get people skating and enjoying it. You guys should to an ollie tutorial too!

Got a new longboard after skateboarding for a couple of months. Bombed my first hill and I couldn’t slide to stop , so I fell scraping my right knee creating a deep wound . So this video is very helpful, I’m out for a month but I’ll be back , love this

Great video, thank you! Edited: Also, props to John for not doing slides from the first try so we have that greatest explanation of what to try and how to fix issues with sliding.

Of all the slide videos I've watched, I like this one because you have relative beginners doing it with you, which gives an idea of the mistakes you make, and what it might look like as you learn.

I tried to slide for about 1 month, but finally yesterday I managed it thanks to this video ... really thank you very much, it was the video I needed

Your editing skills are out of this world

The master of the rally cat teaching how to slide. Poggers!

Son, I’ve watched every slide video on the internet. I’ve probably invested 2% of my life to watching slide vids on the internet. I think this slide vid tops it. Basically son, thank you for this great slide vid. Personally I prefer skating an ATV or a reg skateboard because I’m a chump. But I promise you that I will treasure these skills and talents that you have handed over to me. Because I’m not a goofy dude, hopefully I don’t forget which foot is left and which foot is right though. Thanks son.

Alex.... Dude thank you so much! I kicked my first clean 180 (hand down) today and I'm STOKED! I fell in love with my drop cat today for the 3rd time

The first helpful video after 10 others!! Thank you!

I just bought a Landyachtz and i'm so stoked! I am excited to finally have a longboard after wanting one for 9 years, I made the commitment and now I'm ready for the journey ahead.

Dude this video helped me to slide so much :). Now I can consistently stop without dying

Best slide tutorial on KZfaq... by far! You you also do a pumping tutorial please!!! I am getting frustrated with those short videos of people just showing of that they can do it but not HOW to LEARN it! Please!

Fat 37 year old beginner skater here. ✨Wow. This video just enabled me to slide for the first time ever. ✨Literally been watching videos and trying for weeks and haven't managed to actually slide even once. Never even managed to slide a little, nor get a puck on the ground while moving. It always just seemed impossibly dangerous and scary, like I wasn't ready yet. Immediately after watching this though I was able to make clear and safe progress towards sliding, and after some attempts I was eventually able to slide my board for the first time! Amazing. Thank you so much. I will also mention that it started raining lightly while I was doing this and that might have made it easier to get that crucial first slide. Seeing the pushup slide is possible *at low speed* was the enabler, that allowed me to find where the board loses traction without feeling like I needed to risk major injury doing so. Go slow and trust the pucks, worked for me. Also really, really helped seeing John trying and failing, then eventually getting it! Inspiring. Gave me the confidence that failure didn't mean I was missing some mystery intermediate skill, and if I keep trying I'll eventually get it, and I did. Seeing the ways he genuinely did it wrong then showing how to fix it was also so, so helpful. There's a subtle but important difference between seeing beginners making genuine, real mistakes and experts intentionally making "fake" mistakes. Also appreciated the quick note on the foot position, this helped me notice my board has indentations and I feel far more in-control and stable once my feet are placed correctly. Thanks again for all this.❤

Probably the best Longboarding tutorial I've seen

Hands down the best video on yt on how to slide. Also saw another person suggesting a a "truck setup" video for different riding styles, i think thats a great idea! Much love!

This world needs more teachers that can point lasers.

I swear I watch this video at least twice a month. One of the best tutorials on the different slide techniques out there!

So I just bought me the DINGHY COFFIN COCKTAIL board. I always wanted to learn how to do powerslides, years of riding cruiser boards and just carving and cruising but never really doing the power slides. This video helped me do my first ever control power slides. After a couple of falls. I finally understood and now I can’t stop doing them. The board is great for tricks, which I’m also learning to do. Today was day one with the board and I couldn’t be happier.

DEFF need more of this teaching style vids. Standard tutorial videos don't help as much, without instructing real beginners first hand.

watching people failing by learning their mistakes is such an effective way of learning, i love this format!

This dude is a good teacher ngl

11:17 Lmbo!! These edits are great, you are fabulous. This video was so helpful and you are a great teacher!!

Could you maybe make more trick videos? This one was so great!

Alex Hannigan is a very good teacher, I will watch this video again and again until my slides have perfected, he gives very detailed information on key points, not just the way of doing also where the mistakes are coming, very much encouraging, helps overcome the fear thank you 😁👍

DIY'd some gloves this morning, watched this vid, slid my heart out all afternoon. Funk yes dudes...THANK U!!!

Best video of Landyachtz ever....A little advice is to have a worldwide shipping more cheaper because for example to peru cost 99 usd or have an ambassador

Alex is the best teacher: he's great at watching people skate and articulating how to improve. Someone said he would also be a cool guy to hang with for a day- agreed! These are great videos.

THE most helpful longboard trick video I’ve found. You teaching real people that don’t know the trick is a huge help in this video that I don’t see in pretty much any “learn this trick” vids. The way you teach and describe motions and terms is also very helpful. The good camera quality and view of the long boarders is great as well. I hope you remember these and continue making videos like this. It really helps those that genuinely want to learn new longboard tricks. Thanks✌️

Thank you for the online class Landyatchz!

This is the best slide tutorial I’ve ever seen! 🤙🏾

I'm starting to learn. Rain season started so I have to wait but this video is gona be my bible for a few weeks from now. Thank you!

My favorite Canadian. I taught my friends how to skate and Alex taught me how to slide, definitely passing on the knowledge. Thank you for showing mistakes instead of just doing it and hoping we pay attention!!!!!

Gotta love Alex. He seems like the nicest guy on the planet

So wholesome. I’m grateful.

Everything is perfect about this video.. Quality, Sound, Humor, Editing and Education it's amazing!

Thanks a bunch Alex and da Landyachtz team!!! This is very helpful!

How's that possible you can teach me in one video, clear some things up, explain some common mistakes. You're the true hero. Thanks!

Thank you Alex, will definitely practice the slides 👍

Awesome and stoked to start trying. Just got started Longboarding at 54 years old. 🙏 Looking forward to the fun learning. 🤩

This guy is so kind it would be so easy to learn from him, great videos!

This is really well explained. I needed this. This one really broke it down to easily understandable steps.

Everything is there. Well done guys !

very detailed and helpful! thanks for making this

Great instruction, Ryan! I will definitely be watching this a few more times. The laser line is great, I never thought of using that as a reference.

Great descriptive video with a thoughtful skill progression format. Alex is a great instructor. Loads of positivity, patience, and effective communication skills to break down the details in useful steps. Thank you!

This is the best slide tutorial I've ever seen thank you

One of the most informative videos I have seen on KZfaq.

That was the best lesson video I've seen yet! Thank you!

The slide is broken down so well makes it really easy to grasp the technique, I'm so psyched to try this out ! Thank you Alex

Just got the switchblade and its made learning to slide sooo easy. Great board and great video

Oh man thank you so much you just gave me a target to this spring, i want to be ready for summer, love you guys !

Great work Alex!

super educational , very well explained , editing looks really nice and relaxed love it !

I love how positive this guy is! Great video!

This is helpful. It was sent to me after I made a video noting I was be better if more downhill riders made videos teaching new riders because it would be easier to learn from them that way.

Seriously, by far, the best how to vid on slides out there. Hands down.

Out of every how to slide video on youtube this is BY FAR the best and most helpful one yet! Great job Alex!

This really helps! I’ve seen so many videos on all these things that take too much time on all the wrong things

This was a fantastic demonstration. Alex is an excellent instructor.

Landyachtz puts the team on their back, honestly. So vital for the longboard community. Great boards, and the best longboarding KZfaq channel. I’m a huge fan.

The most helpful video on sliding and check sliding on KZfaq. Thank you 🙏🏽

Great video - my slide gloves just arrived in the mail and I'm going to give this a crack tomorrow. It's really good to see the progression and failures as they learn. This is a+ content

Haven’t watched the whole thing yet but just that Mackarena in the big fining deserves a million views

Really well taught! Want to give this a try on my Dinghy, just about learned the 180 slide on the toeside... after a couple of bruises on my tailbone. Also, loved the Check it Out music thrown in at the end!

Well done you guys. Keep em coming!

love the attitude these guys had while learning. I saw huge improvements in just 1 session from both

Great Teacher! Always had something to reinforce with positivity.

Man these longboard videos are so wholesome

I'm impressed with the students - they did an amazing job during this first training
