What this video teaches

Braille Skateboarding's Aaron Cairo teaches the noseslide with emphasis on getting the aim and approach angle right, comparing the body rotation to a frontside 180. The key coaching point is placing your front foot slightly closer to the nose than in a normal ollie so you can guide the board directly onto the nose when you pop, and approaching the ledge nearly perpendicular at first until the lock-in feels natural.

Key tips

  • Move your front foot slightly closer to the nose than your normal ollie position, almost over the front bolts
  • Approach the ledge nearly perpendicular (straight on) to start, not at a shallow angle
  • Pop and slide your front foot forward to guide the nose onto the ledge: the aim has to be precise or the board misses the lock-in
  • Have your frontside 180 dialed before attempting this: the body rotation into the trick is the same
  • You cannot be cocked too far to one side or backward: the pop must go straight into the lock-in
