Punching fairies and kicking children.. the keys to steezy toesides

[@thedarknight5714]

Your comment which is three years old didn't get pinned by Loaded, BUT, Konker Squirrel 's comment whihc is 9 months old did. Your has more likes. Do you cry every time?

[@kyle.2344]

TheDarKnight 57 I stay up all night and weep. constantly.

[@StokedAllDay]

So I had been stuck on toe checks for the longest time. It was so bad, that none of what Ethan explained made any sense to me. And I don't know what happened but I looked at this a little bit ago, just for the sake of maybe trying to learn them one last time. And I swear to you guys, everything just clicked. The video made perfect sense. IT WAS ALL SO SIMPLE. Follow everything he says and I swear toeside checks will be SO easy to learn. I'm not saying I'm good at them by any means, obviously I'm still learning. But now I'm consistently doing them with better form than I've ever had. I just thought I'd share/back up how important this video is for learning them. Perfect reference if you're stuck. For me, it was all about the front foot. THAT is what kept getting me.

[@Napalm832]

Bryan Velez Dang! I really wanna learn but it seems so awkward. I'm sorta stuck on power slides for stopping. (I don't know how to slide w/ my hands yet)

[@michaelvaldez2070]

Every time I finally find a "how-to" vid on slides with an individual who communicates the steps with clarity they're always a goofy rider....

[@simaosk8life]

really helpful!! :)

[@OliwerO-]

I also have the tesseract and I try the speedcheck for almost two weeks now... Maybe I'm song something wrong I don't know. So I have some questions :D Which wheelbase do u use? Do u set your trucks harder then usual for sliding? How can I avoid slipping of the board when I try to turn it back? Hope you'll answer bro.

[@Thome90]

is sliding with longer or shorter wheelbase easier?? i've got the Loaded Overland and currently the longer wheelbase and Abec 11 Freerides 84a as wheels...this setup should work, right?....still cant manage to slide.....maybe im too slow....lul....me so scared

[@StdRSurfeR]

hahahaha, I like this trick tip, funny video dude!

[@Xxbloodo]

yeah... its snowy in canada already...

[@RayneBoarder]

Just wondering what bushing setup you're using Ethan? I seem to be around the same size as you and I was wondering what's been working for you, haven't been able to figure out a good setup for myself, Thanks!

[@MrEsploded]

Ethan

[@jonasvsd4939]

to return the check I did not quite understand the weight has to be on the front foot ?

[@neuvation6607]

Is the landyachtz 9to5 with more that a 30 inch wheel base too long for this... ALSO i've only seen top mounted tutorials on this slide and most other stand up slides... will a drop through be less easy to do it on. I tries a heelside 180 in the rain last week and ate shit that's why I'm asking.

[@CyValkarion]

Nice shoes.

[@denemixUA]

Молодец. Понятно и энергично объясняешь так держать!

[@josereanoalcantara9307]

Hi anyone know when the sale will be dismissed at the new tables Truncated and Cantellated

[@remymialon2705]

hello, i have a little question, what is the best position for my back foot : on the board or on the side of the board ? Is that wrong to put it on the side ? because i'm too afraid that my foot slip out of the board. Maybe had a very coarse grip ? (ps : sorry for my bad english) Thanks a lot for the tip he really help !!

[@remymialon2705]

PhrikaPhresh OK thanks for the answer, I try to put it in gradually.

[@FlashGame83]

What are your trucks and your wheels PLEASE ?

[@matheusleal7831]

How are your wheels ? What's your Shape ?

[@LongboardBail]

I've ripped about 3 pairs of pants trying this just warming up this year... its be 1 week... can your feet be on the trucks?

[@viniciusmacie1]

Speed helps. Not the drugs.

[@arnaudbrubacher]

little tip forgotten according to me: if you tend to do a 180, prevent that by keeping you slide below the 90 degree. If you reach 90 degree, it is harder to bring it back.

[@hiphoppin9]

dudes funny as hell

[@alexandreiTF]

I struggle with this slide so muuchh... If gotten the rest of my slides down pretty quick but this one is not something I'm catching onto.. Any tips?

[@alexandreiTF]

Alright thanks man!

Sweet helmet! Looking for a new for my collection, what helmet are/were you using?

set up?

[@kingkongyaro16]

What helmet is he using in this?

[@christianmontoya3256]

que hago para q no se frene en los stand up no se suene demasiado la kikmer86a

[@AlexGarcia-nv3kg]

Why do some people point their front foot kind of towards the front of the board instead of the normal position when they do backside checks?

[@MrDanielHawes]

It makes you faster if your toes are pointed down the hill. More aero. Like Ethan said, the faster you go the easier the slide will be.

[@TheParadoxSurfer]

It helps with directional riding, which are the whole point of checks. makes it easier to keep a slide below 90 and bring it back. Watch Nate Blackburn skate a little, perfect example

[@kmg1434]

it's just easier on the ankle, it won't have to twist as much.

[@nate8873]

Speed helps.... 0.o not the drug, hahaha

[@4nyxy]

just think of night fever night fever ... xD ^^ cool vid just seen na am got the same board jezz - pretty much amazing dat board

[@liamcampione6044]

Where is this filmed? San Jose?

[@ethandavis3502]

Hey my name is Ethan!!!!!😄

[@charlieellis9462]

does anyone have any advice on doing these fast. I can do them at about 20mph smoothly no problem, but anything above that I freak out. is there a technique to building up to fast toesides, or is it just a confidence thing I have to overcome?

[@LoadedAmbassadors]

Confidence is a huge part of it. That ties directly into your trust in your wheels and setups. Once your comfortable with higher speeds, the most important thing to think about is gradually easing into the slides. Think as if you are moving in slow motion for the beginning part of the slide, then as you drag the slide out, come back to real time and hook it up in "normal" speed. The slow motion technique helps you from over shooting the slide, kicking too hard, and either icing out or high siding. Other things to keep in mind at high speeds: -Lean with your chest into the hill, better to have to put a hand down than fall head over heels. -Use a corner. Helps direct the slides and hold them out longer, without fear of hooking up and aiming towards a curb. -Low degree trucks. More stable at high speeds and let you make smaller adjustments to the amount you're turning, preventing over steer and high sides or quick hook ups. -Stay low, grow tall, get low. Small posture at first helps keep your balance and prepare your legs. Rising up through the slides helps to de-weight the wheels as well as hold the slide out longer. Sinking down at the end of the slide allows you to hook up easier and with more stability with a low chance of high siding or losing balance. Good luck!

[@charlieellis9462]

LoadedAmbassadors thanks, that's really helpful. 😃

[@albertbaria6347]

this video is good for goofy :) im totally goofy thank you etahn cochard

[@petartodorov97]

Guys are the loose trucks better for big standies. I do them but i get chatter (i have calibers 83a the cage and LY tomahawk 2013) and i think it might be from the trucks. I think i do the motion good but smth happens and the wheels start to chatter :/

[@ethancochard9107]

if your trucks are too loose, then the hangar might jump around a bit. but honestly, people almost never have them THAT loose. usually its how you setup your wheels. first of all use spacers. if you dont use spacers, then get some and change your lifestyle. then you gotta make sure to tighten the nuts on the wheels all the way down to where they will spin, but not move side to side or make a "clicking" noise. lastly, check them bolts holding your trucks to your board. if those are loose, then chatter can come from there.

[@petartodorov97]

Ethan Cochard Thanks for the reply Ethan( love your vids)! I'm not that new to skateboarding and I always check if everything is tighten up. I got spacers etc. I realised whats the problem with the chatter. I used to kick the board with too much pressure and I couldnt keep the weight on my front foot.That's why the front wheels chattered all the time. Respect!

[@amagicalbagel]

3:38 holy shit, good comedy. hahaha

[@Fr3shFritz]

Does it also work with boards such like the Globe Pinner Classic 40?

[@gholdsfishing3144]

There's only one way to find out

[@Fr3shFritz]

Ok I'll try :D

[@valderoev]

Fr3shFritz How'd it go? :D

[@yuriduzionipiovezan7267]

What wheels ?

[@swissrazor]

Jajajajaja muy bueno!

[@Technogc-brc]

jajajaja! you are funny bro! thaks for the data!

[@SBecktacular]

it's like a frontboard snowboarding......same motion ;)

[@Alex-xo4kp]

sbecktacular I was longboarding for 2 years when i first started snowboarding and i had it down after a couple of hours. it is so similar.

[@SBecktacular]

yeah,......I actually started snowboarding first and fell so much in love with it that I HAD to find something similar to do in the off season, and longboarding fits the bill perfectly!

[@guyofhockey7843]

sbecktacular so true.

[@jordanwhistlefish2913]

How hard are your wheels need to be when doing this? What's the durometer?

[@AndresEscrich]

any duro really, but a freeride orientated wheel hels A LOT! like an abec freeride flashback or a rayne envy etc

[@PwndByKuko]

in this vid its 86a but it doesnt really matter dude

[@mrHellishGamer]

his wheels are 86a, the kilmer i think
