Dark slide (skateboarding)
- Dark slide (skateboarding)
-
The Darkslide is a skateboarding trick that is similar to a boardslide, but with the skateboard face up. The skateboarder thus slides perpendicularly on an obstacle, feet set on the face-side of the nose and tail.[1]
Though the dark slide was invented by Mark Gonzales in 1991[citation needed] as a caveman trick (Gonzales had grabbed his board face-side up, jumped, landed his board onto a rail grip tape-side down, and slid down) for a photo shoot, Rodney Mullen is credited as having taken the dark slide seriously, and first performed it sequenced from an ollie in the 1993 Plan B video Virtual Reality.
