Private Sliding Lesson

Service Description

Private sliding sessions are designed to be fun and supportive, offering personalised guidance through the basics of freeride and downhill longboarding. 🛹 Whether you're a beginner looking to build confidence or an improver aiming to master more advanced slides, this one-on-one lesson will be tailored to your skill level and goals. For Beginners: You'll start by learning fundamental skills like building speed, sliding with gloves, and foot braking. Depending on your progress, we'll cover one or two introductory slides using slide gloves. For Improvers: If you already know a basic slide or two and are confident going slightly faster, we'll work on enhancing your technique and introducing more advanced slides such as Coleman/Pendulum Slide, Frontside Powerslide, Backside Predrift, Frontside Standup 180 Slide, Toeside Slide. Equipment and Safety: Please bring your own board, knee and elbow pads, slide gloves, and helmet. If you don't have a board or slide gloves, I can lend you these—just indicate this in the booking form. Before the session, you must sign the compulsory waiver found in the booking form or on our site. Lesson Time, Duration, and Frequency: You can book a one-off session or a pack of classes. The initial session will get you started, but to maintain momentum and perfect your technique, additional sessions are recommended. Please arrive 10 minutes before the session to ensure we maximise time on the board.
