A slide performed by sitting down when you grab the deck with your hand, the board is turned 90° to the direction of travel
How do it
For this slide you perform a sitdown check while holding on to the board with your back hand.
1.
The foot stance is identical to the coleman slide. Before executing, gain enough speed to perform check.
2.
Sit down, push the board into a slide with your back leg, while aiming your shoulders straight down the slope. And, the moment you enter the slide, grab the middle of the board with your back hand.
3.
Make sure your weight is evenly distributed over the board. To make the slide a little easier, you can bring some of your weight onto your hand. Now let go of the board, shift your weight back on to your front leg and turn your shoulders back to your regular stance.
