Want to learn slides on a Cruiser board? Check out this video czcams.com/video/XSGa3TQHtLo/video.html
Ive learn how to slide my board including my but and face ty very much landyachtz for your tutorial 👍
can i slide on my battleaxe with clear zombies
Please teach us how to slide out of 2020
Step1:buy a landyachtz
Step 2:go back in time to kill patient zero
Step 3: ???
Step4: profit?
I'm last, landyachtz boards are now well known as time machines
@@deathcrab2901 Step 2 was to make the wet market not exist
remember, there is no spoon, it was all made up 👍
@@deathcrab2901 one of the bros in this video has a LY Time Machine. I have one too.
Me: *falls*
My longboard: Adios
Those Hawgs weren't made for stopping. 25% of the mileage on my board has been ghost riding haha
Friend at the bottom running an interception.
ankle strap 😅🤙
Abueno adiós master 🤝
Yesterday I was practicing and my board almost slammed into a car
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
i agree it was very very useful and made the entire video incredibly viable
So true! I'm back to re-watch this, If only I had an instructor to teach me.
I've been trying to learn for weeks and I actually understand what I'm supposed to be doing with this video, the other ones are a lot more confusing
Agreed. All the mechanics explained and demonstrated clearly. Sliding 101.
Legit this is the video I’ve needed
word
fr bro
Me too.
I have watched like 8 different sliding videos including ones from legit kids and this is a godsend
same lmao
Best slide tutorial, in the whole universe propably.
After going through a few nah. Definitely the most entertaining, but he misses out so many vital details
Best anything tutorial
4:22 "that sound, Im not gonna try to imitate it"
*tries to imitate it*
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.
I’ve been sliding for years and he still taught me a thing or two about my form. I’ve been doing things sloppy and I’m excited to get out there w the new mentality he gave me about leaning forward and keeping your back knee tucked down during heel sides. Also, pointing the back foot forward during toe sides looks very beneficial. Me and the boys taught ourselves but this would’ve helped us growing up.
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
"Whoever this guy is" 😂

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!
I'm 35 and sometimes question if I should be trying to learn to slide. I've road rashed few times already but am totally hooked. Love hearing I'm not the only full on adult still trying this stuff. Inspiring. Thanks
More power to you guys!!! I am nearly 49 and fell in love with snowboarding last season and it is now my favorite sport. I also started longboarding this summer. It is never too late honestly!!!
41 years old here. Started again last year. I just try to identify my limits and ride within them. I push them very carefully. I just faceplanted once so far when I ignored my own advice 😅
40 here and sliding, treat your body right and age really is just a number...
11:17 this is the best transition ever you can fight me on that
that fuckin got me
I was cracking up !!!
lmao
Lol
I think Alex would be the coolest guy to spend a day with...
That is just a dream for me
I feel you man
His bad temper is hilarious
😏😏😏😏
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.
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
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
This hands down the best sliding video on youtube
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
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.
I love that it doesn't have people that already know but people who are learning.
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!
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
Love the dissection of the thumbnail, now I know what's what. Never knew what the title was till now
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.
Mad props on the teaching style! Positive yet constructive comments! Those dudes will be skaters for life now!
This format is the ultimate way of teaching via yt, watching real people learn and real mistakes
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
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.
I like how alex is a chill dude
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!
Best slide tutorial on CZcams... 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!
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
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.
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.
Hey that's great to hear! Similar to you, i also started late with longboarding!
Your editing skills are out of this world
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.
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.❤
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👍😁
Without doubt THE BEST slide tutorial on CZcams. 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!
This video comes 10 years later but is great for my comeback to longboarding
"If you're getting scared you forget what you need to do" - the biggest gem!
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
Dude this video helped me to slide so much :). Now I can consistently stop without dying
Probably the best Longboarding tutorial I've seen
The master of the rally cat teaching how to slide. Poggers!
I swear I watch this video at least twice a month. One of the best tutorials on the different slide techniques out there!
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!
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!!!!!
This is the best slide tutorial I’ve ever seen! 🤙🏾
Video is superrrrr helpful. It’s lengthy and involves people who also don’t know what they’re doing. I often try to follow in the footsteps of people who are experts and they make it look so easy
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!
DIY'd some gloves this morning, watched this vid, slid my heart out all afternoon. Funk yes dudes...THANK U!!!
"I wasnt expecting that." - oh yeah we know that feeling very well
This dude is a good teacher ngl
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.
Everything is perfect about this video..
Quality,
Sound,
Humor,
Editing and Education it's amazing!
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 😁👍
Awesome and stoked to start trying. Just got started Longboarding at 54 years old. 🙏 Looking forward to the fun learning. 🤩
This is BY FAR the best tutorial video online! A couple of years ago I tried longboarding, but never really got it. This video gives the basics that I never knew before. Watching this inspires me to want to give it another try (I'm an old guy). I still have those slide gloves somewhere......
Much props...after watching this I
finally nailed it. Thank you bro!
Seriously, by far, the best how to vid on slides out there. Hands down.
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✌️
got into longboard recently and this video help me a lot :)
I hate LY...these videos have made me go out and purchase not one but two LYs already!!! 🙈 But big thanks to Mr Hannigan (and the r video team doing this series) - imho, these instructions are very good!
I like how you got people with 3 lvl's of skill to demonstrate this. Although I can slide all i want on a skateboard and I longboard quite a lot I never get them to slide and you just motivated me to learn them!
Man these longboard videos are so wholesome
Super Old Guy returning after a long hiatus. Have a spot I've been skating, but skipping the super steep part (no helmet, need to buy) till now. It's the perfect spot (long cruisable, carvable downhill), close to home and now you've given me and (my friend "70-80s freestyler") some alternatives for our "Senior Sessions".
Much appreciated.
11:17 Lmbo!! These edits are great, you are fabulous. This video was so helpful and you are a great teacher!!
This is one of the 1% instruction videos u can find which are really useful and good. Great job! Thx for that!
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.
This is the best slide tutorial I've seen yet
Landyachtz puts the team on their back, honestly. So vital for the longboard community. Great boards, and the best longboarding CZcams channel. I’m a huge fan.
Great video man! Going to use your advices tomorrow, just got the gloves. So stocked! Greetings from Moscow🤙
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
That was the best lesson video I've seen yet! Thank you!
This is a great hobby to get into for snowboarders
This was a great video. Even though I’ve been longboarding for 10+ years it’s nice to go back and re-learn the fundamentals. Can’t wait for the weather to get warmer to start practicing.
(Also I loved Johns attitude through the video even when he struggled he took it in stride and laughed through it. Love it!)
I'm impressed with the students - they did an amazing job during this first training
One of the most informative videos I have seen on CZcams.
I learned toe side stand ups yesterday because of this video. Alex is a real one
I've watched a dozen videos on how to slide, and this was probably the only one that was more than people showing off. I've now got my pushup slide down, and this video has helped me to realize that my heel-side carve game is too weak to even start trying to slide it. Thank you!
Special mention for 2:21... This 5 seconds of footage is pure instructional gold!
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.
The topic explained super clearly! Not the first video to mention you're a great teacher with a great approach - you pay attention to the details exactly when it's needed (whereas everyone else speaks only about key points, repeating one after the other).
So thank you, you're the best!
watching people failing by learning their mistakes is such an effective way of learning, i love this format!
Video has taken me from getting back into boarding after a half decade to getting 3 of these down in 3 days. Great video, great personality, wonderfully broken down.
I just started and this looks like a lot more fun than bailing or crashing all the time.
love the attitude these guys had while learning. I saw huge improvements in just 1 session from both
This video is a fantastic resource to keep coming back to. I keep coming back either to reinforce what I've already learned or to review knowledge of things that aren't quite there. Thank you to LY and Alex for putting out this extremely concise and informative "how-to". Maximum meat with zero BS.
I'm from West Virginia and I'm starting to do downhill boarding and these guys are very helpful
So wholesome. I’m grateful.
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!
This guy knows what he's talking about! 🤙
As I wrote earlier, I am new skater and far from slides, but your slomo is priceless, as for first time I saw how to properly position for a turn. Today used it and was able to speed up and control better. Felt so good. Gonna practice next days too. Thanks. Please do more slomo at different angles. Really helps and it's priceless really. Greets from Toronto!
The most helpful video on sliding and check sliding on CZcams. Thank you 🙏🏽
Been practicing heelside coleman's for the past 3 days and been very successful. It's a lot of fun! I've watched this video multiple times as it's a great tutorial to be able to dissect. Looking forward to mastering the heelside glove slide and then moving on to toe side glove slides. Just gotta start practing riding switch also!
Haven’t watched the whole thing yet but just that Mackarena in the big fining deserves a million views
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 guy is so kind it would be so easy to learn from him, great videos!
One thing that would be very helpful would be to talk about what type of wheels we need to do this type of stuff. Some are meant for cruises (very gripe) and some are down hill designed for curves. I could be wrong. Maybe you can do it on both. I don’t know, that’s my opinion. Thanks for this video. Very helpful.
This is the best slide tutorial I've ever seen thank you
