Yes Cameron I understand what you're saying - that it is possible to make your own set of slide gloves for $5 if you have an old pair of gloves and wanna look in op-shops for a chopping board. I'm not saying you can't do it, and I'm not claiming that Slippery Dips are the only way to go. But this thread isn't for discussing the cheapest way to make slide gloves. If you wanna tell everyone about your epic gloves, thats fine, but start a new discussion. Put up a tutorial on how to do it if you really wanna let others know of other options. Chances are that anyone interested in a set of these slide pucks is looking for a quality puck that will perform at a high level, and are past the home-made gloves stage. When paired with a decent set of gloves, they're not really even comparable to garden glove/hot glue/chopping board jobs. To start with - make your own gloves - fine, but once you start getting better and sliding faster, chopping board is crap, you will go through 10 chopping boards in the time that a set of Slippery Dips will last.
So yes I do see what you're trying to say, but I don't think it's really valid or necessary for you to be saying it here.

So dont think im trying to payout this in any way cause im not i just want other people to have different options and try to save ppeople money were they can. Is that understandable? Or are you still not seeing where I'm coming from.

Cameron- I don't think your understanding mate these pucks are taking a thrashing when your sliding into a corner at 80kmh. You don't want to have no puck left for the other corners. Chopping board is not adequate enough to stand those sorts of thrashings thats why Benny has created these long lasting pucks cuz he has used chopping board. When you get experienced in skating and enjoy thrashing down savage hills whipping speed checks for the hair pins at high speeds you will understand $26 is a bargain for easily 6 months out of a set of pucks if not more.
Ted- i would recommend the 80mm by 20mm i have had them for about six months love them perfect for my plam size and keeps my fingers or the road aswell.

What diameter are the Loaded Race pucks? And width? I reckon I will get a set of these after I wear mine.
I also have corian tiles, they are veeeeery smooth, worth trying.

I'm not sure Jonty. If you have a set get a tape measure and find out.

junior didnt see the poster he is on... "Slippery dips strongly encourages the use of helmets whilst skating" haha
Joe said:Junior needs a helmet. so he doesn't slippery dip into the road and hit his head haha ;)
But rad little sales prompt, this might take off. would look sweet in a magazine.
