Lip slide

i htink he is comparing lip from reg, not a high urban to a park rail

i think lip slide is easier to stay balanced, but alot scarier.
 
do you know what a lip slide is? Depending on which way you slide, gettin on one side of the rail is lip the other is just regular or "street style" or "heel side".
 
i nutted myself so hard doing a lipside onto a down bar, urban, this week, but it was because the bar swayed about a foot side to side, haha i landed with my front ski down first pushed the bar out from under me then ended up opening up, then my skis crossed around a post holding the rail up....bad times. But i find it easier to lip 270 onto down bars than normal 270...idk why put i alwys nut myself doing normal 270s
 
it completely depends on how much of a jump there is onto the rail, if its a bigger jump than i would rather lipslide but if thers no jump than i would rather do it regular.
 
When you get onto a rail street style, and you go on from the leftside, sliding right foot up, or going on from the right side sliding left foot up.
 
wow kutchy you so smarts.

and no, I certainly don't feel the same way you do about lip slides. they sweet though I need to grow a pair and get better at em.
 
i tried lipslides the first time the other night on a down bar and nearly nutted myself first time but found it easier to pop on, but im still 100 times more confident just going on regular streetstyle.
 
I find it's easier to get on with lipslide, just cause of the way your knees can bend and get your tails over, then straighten again and balance.
