Learn how to magic slide in three steps.
1) UFO 2) RELEASE 3) SLIDE

I started practising the magic slide about a month ago after seeing a Greg Mirzoyan magic slide tips video. I must say, the magic slide is a tonne of fun.

The magic slide is a tried and true stopping method. Greg Mirzoyan said that this is his emergency brake. The magic slide is not only a great city skating technique but it is also used by downhill skaters. With some practice, the magic slide could be your emergency brake.

To learn the magic slide we break it down into three steps.

1) UFO position

Get into the UFO position by getting into a wide stance, lunging to one side and then bringing your knees together.

2) Release

The release is achieved by slightly rotating and driving through our heel

3) Slide

The slide is a combination of counter rotation and drag

There are many great magic slides tutorials online. Check out the Greg Mirzoyan tutorial -    • Tips from Greg Mirzoyan - "The Magic"
