I don't think I've ever seen such a good boardslide tutorial ever. Please do more. You're a great teacher.

I hit a 10 rail today but I’m still watching this because skaters talking about skating is just so fun to listen to.

I wished I watched this before I got completely destroyed 😂

I only do flat rails because I'm old and arthritic. Lol. Plus I'm only 2 years back into skating. Don't always get to skate as much as I want to. I appreciate all of your videos and insight. Mad respect for you

I find it funny people think this is easier on a ledge. When there are so many other things that come into play, on a ledge. Like wheels sticking to the top and pitching your ass off. It is scarier on a rail but so much easier.

“So if youre using a flat bar or a round flat bar...” Im using the base of a street sign propped up on two six by sixes that i pull out and put on the road. I live in the middle of nowhere and the asphalt is rough as balls

this video did me wonders when I learned how to boardslide. only took me a couple hour sessions! plus your kickflip explanation has made my kickflips 1000000% better. thankyou Professor Corrigan :)

I miss this Dan so much. He still amazing but seeing him do this type of content is so good and helpful

Died and got grade 1 inversion ankle sprain yesterday tryna do this lol. Watching this while recovering, we gonna be back next week 😎

Just landed my first boardslide after watching this like 7 times the night before!!! APPRECIATE YOU DAN!!

Dan, you deserve more clicks and subs. You have kind of an abrasive personality at first, but after a few videos, I could see you're a really cool guy with strong friendships.

One big tip is lean a little too forward the first time and each try it. Afterwords lean a little more back until you get used to sliding on a board slides

Thank You Dan, for taking time out of your day to show people how to have fun!

Just landed my first boardslide today after I watched your video and it really helped me with the mental aspect of the trick. Thanks Dan!

Best tutorial ever!!!!!! Dan you are the best teacher! Please do more tutorials. Thanks!

Dan please keep making tutorials! We need more in depth videos like these. You’re the man!

this was the best tutorial I’ve watched by far. I had attempted boardslides a few times to no avail but I watched this video and then went to go skate and I was able to actually land my first one and get it fairly consistent (I only kissed the rail but it’s more progress than I’ve made before). I’m going to attempt to get more centered and getting longer slides but this video helped a LOT

these make me feel so comfortable bro, why are these tips said so good

DAN, U SO ARTICULATE. That's why i'm subbed. Gonna go give this one a shot. edit: NVM, only have ollies at 40% success rate going up curbs right now. Time to work more on that and then come back to this. THANKS FOR THE KNOWLEDGE, DUDE

Thank you, Father. I always have trouble committing but I know I can I can do it since I’ve done it before, you got me hyped to learn it

dude thank you for real i always had it in my mind that I had to slide at least a foot for a board slide or get on in the middle but your tutorial helped me remember i only have to tap it in the beginning

Just got back into skating after years, would love one of these on lipslides especially! Very good tutorial for beginners or for just a quick refresher. Well done man.

great tutorial Dan! Wish I had this level of depth when i was learning these as a kid

thank you really helps. I was feeling really weak because of my fear off the rail and the video helped me a lot

Best boardslide clip I've seen, thanx Dan

Yeah. Thank you. You’re really good at trick tips

Hey Dan, I am 44 and skating for a year now. The whole time I wanted to learn how to skate a rail but I didn't know were to start and was really scared. You took that fear away with this vid! Can't wait for my ankle to heal and start skating rails :D Btw. Love you insta clips with music!

if i get good at skating i will personally thank you for it permanently , you explain this shit so well

Just want to come back and say thanks. This helped. I was bailing weird because I'm awkward. Way better now.

thanks for making this video i appreciate it . sending positive energy

I love the way u teach on dales channel so whatever trci kyou will teach it can be very basic or more advanced will be insightful to me esp taling about how to get out in certain situations, learning steps etc

Your vids are actually helpful thanks g

Cheers Dan, Always struggled with fs boardslides, will try these points tomorrow. Love the content keep up the vids!

This is like my 7th time watching this video its so good and always gets me back on track. I can front board but sometimes i lose it. I feel i dont really know how to sit on rhe rail comfortably & hold the front board. I should’ve probably learned backside first like everybody else but im weird for some reason idk.

Big love for you and your tips.

Dunno why it took me so long to subscribe, always love the way you teach tricks

Get really comfy with Ollies and fs180s will make this much easier. I landed one in like 20 minutes without even falling once. Just gotta get over that mental barrier. I hope everyone learning this trick gets it, it's so fun to do!

I'm from Brazil🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 but this video helped me a lot ... thank you very much

Im stoked on this channel! Dan's such a sick skater, super good at teaching, and funny as shit! What's not to like? Subbed.

Every step he told...absolutely legit!

Other tip : wear wrist guards when learning them and you’ll narrow down de injury possibility by a lot

Dan you're my favorite skateboarder you remind me of my best friend !

I really wish you’d do a pop shov video struggling with consistency love the content man

I am proud of myself (not sure if i should b tho) that i got my first drop-in done before i learned an ollie

You have impeccable timing Dan, I was thinking of learning BS Boardslides on a rail yesterday and planned to search for videos. Guess what I find in my sub box haha. Stay safe!

Fuck yes, man, i love your tutorials; they were a big part of why i love Dale's channel. Super helpful, this old skater appreciates it lol

skating is 98% mental

I did notice this is a 'all of nothing' trick for me. Mostly because as a beginner with a slight fear it's kind of hard to commit to ending up fully balanced above the board. But to me the easiest way to board slide is when fully balanced over the board (kind of makes sense I guess). This is kind of why I do think flatbars are the way to go when first learning. For me it doesn't work landing at a slight angle (or rather, it can make it more difficult really). Maybe even do a caveman boardslide with the board already on the flatbar to get a feel for how it can slide too. I've noticed that took away a lot of the fear for me. In reality, boardslides are not a difficult trick, once you find a speed you're comfortable with and are able to ollie fairly controlled into them.

My tip. If you’re totally new to board sliding, don’t start with a rail. Start with a modest ledge or low kerb - and start with just kissing the end as Dan showed. Using a ledge or kerb avoids getting tangled and caught up in the rail. It has the added benefit in the case of a kerb, of providing a wider surface to slide on which reduces the amount of ‘balancing’ required. Once you’re confident on those obstacles it’s easy to take it to a rail.

Thanks man. I really want to bs but too afraid to do it cause I don't know how to do it safely at the first place

Love the tutorials. Can you please do some more advanced tricks. Maybe switch Front bigspin or fakie biger spin I find it hard to progress cause no one does tutorials for harder tricks

Shirts damn sick bro!

Dude I had no idea u had ur own channel I love u on dales plz keep uploading

Winter in SoCal looks like fall everywhere else

Skated a friend’s square flatbar and slipped out and the corner went into my back, got a half decent BS board on the next try 😎

i think that to learn bs boardslides its better to learn on ledges where you can slide using your front wheels, that feeling is the same you can feel when you do a boardslide on rail, cause the angle and balance its practically the same. so when you get a long and stable slide on ledges you autmatically can do the same on rails. its a fact that you must use more wax on ledge at the wheels contact zone, cause its tends to stuck with ease, and for me something I learned is to slightly lean foward before make ollie into boardslide, cause that prevent to lean backwards when you get over the rail

So sick!!

Hey dan would you do tutorial on how to slappy crook or feeble on ledges?

Skate is great mate

I wish you did a fs boardslide vid. I need that shih

dude i saw u and dale at the whittier skate park a week ago!

thank you Dan

Oh yes the sandman returns

Im thinking a doublesided curb would be useble. Im 48y old and like over 225lbs and 6.5f tall so slams are like often dayenfing. I feel a curb is less angular and a little wider and impactspreading.

Any tips on living in a van? It’s something I’m considering for when I can travel

Probably could have used this video yesterday when I got smoked pop shuving the step up at the indoor park

NEEDED THIS ive been meaning to try a little round flat in my local but it terrifies me

Please do a bs feeble tutorial on rail 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I can’t believe you didn’t suggest that these kids learn slappy back boards first. That’s how I learned to sit on a board slide, and it taught me to bring them to regular without just going off the end of the rail.

This is better explained then Braille army 😰

I learned board slides on a maddgear round skinny rail on the first day, i have 3 days straight trying to board slides a square rail, i hate square rail too 😂

Also good morning!

Thank you

Amazing mo rail vids plz

Can you do the same type of video but how to 50-50 a round rail for the first time?

I tried a boardslide on a ledge earlier today, i tried to get on a part of the ledge where I still had about 4ft of ledge to slide Ended up slipping out backwards but falling beside the ledge, could've been way worse

Idk how many people are going to see this but i think you need to learn bs 180s before you start board slides (which isn’t too hard)

Bro look like the hunter from jumanji 🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣

I need learn fs board down rails 😭

I'm gonna try and board slide a parking curb with this Wish me luck I'll keep y'all updated

I have this issue where when I get into it properly, and have to bail forward, I automatically try to lift up one foot instead of jumping of with both feet. So I end up duckwalking, not getting my feet of the board, and have slammed like a bastard a couple of times. Anyone have tips for getting proper bailing into my muscle memory? I've considered jumping up and "stalling" on the end of the rail, then jumping of, but I donno...

I did a bored slide without doing a ollie😅

dirty daddy dan teaches us how to ride his rail

Do you want your knees bent or straight when getting onto the rail? Feels weird committing to getting both feet on bc maybe my legs are too bent?

I tried boardsliding on one of those parking curb things and I fell on my back and I got on 😭😭

Dan can you tic tac up a 20 stair?

what adidas are those dan

“A round flatbar” - skateboarder, 2021

My skate buddy has too much in faith me… I’m here out of desperation.

hey,even though this video is really old,but i have a question.what do you use so the rail doesn’t slip around?

i think he hates square rails

🙌🏽🙌🏽

my problem with this is coming out, No matter how many times I tell myself to swing my shoulders back to parallel I just cant do it and the board lands primo

I wanna skate with you

yeeee

Is boardsliding a curb easier than a rail? because I cannot do a curb but I really want to attempt a rail. I dislocated my shoulder snowboarding a rail so they freak me out

Wait what wheels you skate ?

You don't need a square rail! You need a good parking block or a skinny short wall!

👍

bruh i need a skateboard mine 12 yrs old💀
