Probably because they do them without locking into the rail and they just strait slide it

Way back in the day, like the first season of cassette, there was a vid with Thomas nosesliding on just a regular 1 fin on each end setup.

you cant really noseslide if your foot is not on the nose. it would be damn hard to balance a true nose slide with your foot that far back
