I tryed i few times, either i'd slip right off or not move. Thanks alot! ,Lemons Replies May 3, 2006Lemons BTW the types i got are the gray/orange Ordnances. May 3, 2006Sugarfree What type of surface are you trying to grind? May 3, 2006Lemons eh, benchs, railing (not high), and i in the process of making a grind bar out-a metal piping... ,Lemons May 3, 2006AnthoFlex What are you...Regular or goofy? Goofy: right foot front Regular: Left foot front May 3, 2006Lemons I can do both, but preferably Regular (i skate board, cant ride switch on that though) ,Lemons May 3, 2006AnthoFlex Hmm....i sk8 too but i find it very hard to do BOTH....but i'm regular like you so this'll be easier....ok u know how they tell you to jump and land ur backfoot first on a rail?....*buzzer EHHHHH wrong! unless if u mongo....get that front foot on first or else u'll slide backwards and bust ur head....u see, us non-mongo regulars cant just land backfoot first....ay least now me...i hope this helps...BTW, where do u live Lemons? May 3, 2006AnthoFlex i meant "AT least NOT me" May 3, 2006James Yeah,a practice rail helps out a lot...When I first baught my soaps I thought I could land anything lol and busted my ass later my friend brougth over his pracice rail and then figured out it was my stance and the way I was landing that was messing me up. May 4, 2006Louis well actually, i also ride a skateboard (goofy) and non-mongo. Landing a grind on soapshoes back foot first has nothing to do with if you ride a skateboard mongo or not....infact using soapshoes has nothing to do with skateboarding whatsoever. As the article on wikipedia says (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soap_shoes) there are advantages and disadvantages to front or back foot first grinds. Personally i'd recomend to a beginer to start learning front foot first doing frontsides. Try to get the backfoot on almost straight after hitting the rail...Its all about confidence, go in half heartedly and it wont work, but go in with concentration and will power and you'll get it soon enough. Like skateboarding, try and imagine yourself doing it. May 4, 2006Lemons Well first of all i live in Western NY and yea, i thought it would be easy so i run right up to a bench jumped on it and my feet slipped right out from under me and busted my elbow! it was kinda funny... Also i got that rail built im doin pretty good on it, but i need a crap load more of practice!!! Thanks! ,Lemons May 4, 2006Curtinator Lemons try using candle wax on benches etc whatever your going to grind then that might help cause the wax makes it better to grind. May 4, 2006AnthoFlex Yea dude use candle wax.....just not the powder-like readue candles...they'll fuk you up...do u live in NYC? cause i live in queens, maybe we oculd go chill sumtime..aight Antho-out May 4, 2006Lemons I got some skate wax and that works real good. I live like near Buffalo like way up west. Would you prefer candle wax over skate wax? ,Lemons May 4, 2006Wesker Skate wax works better than Candle wax, but i'd use either one. May 4, 2006blakeashake lemmons i live in buffalo do u no of anywhere to buy soap shoes? i've been looking but havnt found any. May 4, 2006AnthoFlex Sk8 or Candle wax....same shit...Sk8 wax is a BIT better....a BIT....as for you Blakeashake, (funnie name btw) get them on the internet or check ur local Pacsun or Journeys....or even a sk8 shop....if those Pacsun dudes laugh at you like they did to me....punch them the fuck out and run Quote: Me- Do you sell Soap shoes here? PacSun Guy- Soap SHoes? SOAP SHOES!?!? AHHAAAA!! I HAVENT SEEN THOSE IN YEARS!! YOU'RE SOO LATE.... ME- Gee....thanx a lot u fucking bitch PacSun Guy- ANytime.. Me- Fuck you...(walks away) May 5, 2006Lemons Yea dude, just use the internet, easiest way! But i'd go ebay, speciallty shops can cost a shit load but if you get um on ebay get them new! One its kinda gross if ya dont and 2 they might send you a pair with broken plates or the key missing (the key unscrews the plates if you get new ones), but what ever your choice. ,Lemons May 6, 2006Wesker Antho, if you think it's a "bit" better then you must be using some bad Skate Wax. May 6, 2006AnthoFlex lmao....i never had sk8 wax....but my friends have...i really couldnt tell the difference cause it was in my "early days" of Soaping when i was even afriad just to step on a rail Login or sign up to reply Username Password
