Trick Tip
BS Lipslide

Lipslides look similar to Boardslides with the difference that you lift your back truck instead of your front truck over the rail. A Backside Lipslide is perfomed with a BS 180 before you lock in on the rail or ledge with the middle of your board.

Therefore, it’s good to have BS 180 Ollies and Boardslides on lock. The BS Lipslide is a very stylish trick but quite hard to master as well. So take your time and keep on practising.

1. Approach the ledge almost parallel and put your feet in the Ollie position and ollie up towards the ledge.

2. Once your board is above the rail, start turning your hips and your board in a backside 90 degree motion locking in with the middle of your board on the ledge or rail.

3. After you have locked the Lipslide in, everything else is similar to a Boardslide.

To have good balance while sliding, try to have your feet on top of the bolts of your trucks and your bodyweight centered to avoid slipping out.

4. An important thing is to turn your hips into the slide movement but to keep your shoulders straight looking in the direction, in which you are sliding.

5. At the end, move your hips back and roll away straight.
