"Trick deck wheels are always much easier to slide because they're so hard and small. The more you slide on your sector the easier the wheels will slide."

"You can slide on pretty much any board. My tips are dig your heels in (not too much), toes up and carve into it. "

Trouble sliding

So im finally home from my holiday, and I took my board (a sector 9 ghost tree) out with a friend. I'm fairly new to longboarding and my friend had an oldish trick deck with him. I was having lots of trouble sliding, but slid pretty easy on the trick deck. Is this because I suck, or because the wheels need breaking in? And if I do need to break the wheels in, how do I do it?

"Dan, I'm guessing you are looking to spend $200 for a complete board. If so, you are not going to get anything decent for that price new, but check out the Marketplace on here, there are always great second hand bargains to be had. Cheers Ado"

"i would go for something drop through and symetrical, the jet doppler, earthwing super model, origional freeride, comet fsm and fibertec freeride drop are all good examples of a board like that and come in at under 200 dollars for the deck."
