Nice!

I practiced pivot last summer, but it's been a long time and I'm not sure I can still pull one off. I've never tried to slide one, though.

What kind of wheels do you use?

Ahh I was reading (on ampskate) about how a 180 slide is basically a pivot just without lifting your feet, and going a bit faster ๐Ÿ˜… pivots are fun, they're a nice entry point to a bunch of other tricks.

Wheels are Powell snakes, and the patch I'm riding here is actually a bit damp which made it much easier to initiate a slide at slow speed.
