FrontSide LipSlide

Ride toward the ledge/rail/object at a substantial speed. Set up your feet like you would for a 180. For a frontside lipslide a frontside 180, and for a backside lipslide a backside 180. (This is different from boardslides where you turn in the frontside direction to perform a backside boardslide and you turn in a backside direction to perform a frontside boardslide). It may be easier to approach the object from a slight angle, but not too much of an angle because it may make it difficult to slide. Ollie and turn a 90 degree angle getting your tail over the object, landing on it in a boardslide position. However, the boardslide position will be contrary to the way you are doing the trick (i.e. frontside or backside) meaning if you are doing a frontside lipslide, you will slide in the same way as a backside boardslide and vice versa. Slide along the object keeping your weight centered. If the object you are sliding on comes to and end, simply turn your body and your board 90 degrees and land on the ground to ride away. However, if the object you are sliding on does not come to an end or you want to come off the object before the end of it, it can be a little more difficult. Apply a more than average weight to your front foot and bend your back knee so that the back wheels don't get caught on the object. Quickly, move the weight back to your back foot to level out the board again. You only let the weight on your front foot so you could pop the back wheels over the object. If you are sliding a ledge, it may help to do a sort of manual off the end of it. That way your nose doesn't go straight into the ground. Land and ride away clean.
