HANDRAIL LIPSLIDE
By Jose Cerda
Approach the handrail with plenty of speed.
Pop an ollie with a twist in mind.
When you clear the rail throw your body over it
and land in the lipslip position.
Caution: you will not slow down.
Come off forward and hope you land rolling.
Now go find Erik Estrada. Hasta Luego.

Scoop your tail and get your board into a frontside hurri-
cane position. At this point, start pushing through the grind.

Now that you are grinding, stay a little bit behind your
board, otherwise you will stick and go straight onto
your back, which doesn't feel good.
After grinding, put pressure on your back toe.
Lift it off the curb and come off backwards.
