no, but i would like to try but i don't have any where to hit rails. but once the cable park is built hopefully there will be something like the picnic table at o-dub. that seems like a good rail to try them on

naw im 15 and ive tried a couple i have a 40 2002 cassete concave and i trned it into the 4 trac ive hit a few docks and there actually not to hardjust weird feeeling, just ollie and urn like you gona do a boardslide an you dont even have to have all ur weight over on that foot, the momentum and leverage will help u stay on.
i think there safer than boardslide on a dok.

I really don't think a noseslide would be as hard as everybody makes it sound. It really can't be much different than doing one on a skate board, at least if you had a 4 track that is. I think the picnic table at O dub would be prime for them, you would need something like that, like a box, with a flat top. That would make them a lot easier.

Humm are there people doing noseslides on the wake of a boat? I seem to remember reading something like that...

stussy · Backside 180 Joined: 22 Sep 2003 Posts: 706

that sounds a bit sketch to me, it wouldn't look right

Nekkie, i can do something like that with the wake. not sure exactly what you are thinking of but hopefully when i get some fotage it will end up in there and you can tell me if thats what you ment.

I ride the 4-track and I've tried to do noseslides on different obstacles/rails and it's damn hard! I've broken about 3 set-ups of fins. Last time I tried it on the edge of a dock (similar to the one Thomas is nosesliding on) It's difficult poppin' an ollie and directly afterwards put almost all your weight on your front foot. I'll get some footage of it once I get it dialed in. (will probably take a while hahaha) I've taken some serious hits when I tried it....... Smash
