Skate 3 Back/Frontslides

I know a lot of us are still trying to get through the days of summer in hopes that it'll soon snow and like many of you I have found that Skate 3 is a good way to keep my mind focused on skiing and pass time. For a while now I've been playing around with tricks on skate and have noticed that if you hold A or X (on xbox) to perform a one foot air without grabbing and then release the button right before you enter a grind then the skater will actually grind the rail with one foot on his board and one foot still hovering above, sort of the skater version of a skier's back or front slide. I have been meaning to make a skate edit that includes tricks with front and back slides but don't have a way to record it so unfortunately I can't show you, but I have never seen or heard anyone doing this trick/glitch before so I figured I'd share it with my NS friends, enjoy!

nicceee. i spend a lot of time playing skate.. probably too much. but recently i started doing legit nose butter cork 5, 7, 9's. basically you just nose manual and either go into a power slide or revert right before a drop and quickly push the stick forward so you're doing a switch cork by the time you're fully reverted. it works better on skate 1 but still possible in 2 and 3.

^nose butter 4s onto a rail took me soooooo long to get.

At OP, I need to try that, skate 3 rail tricks are my shit. Footplants and manuals/butters lead to so many dope variations on rails. Also, switch coffin grinds 4 lyfe
