I watched the video produced by Daniel Snyder on how to safely do the Coleman Slide which is a slide to reduce speed. The video had sections made in slow motion so that I could specifically understand what to do during the slide. I know a little bit about the Coleman Slide and I thought that this video clearly explained the steps. This video would be helpful for beginner longboarders because it is taped step by step. This was a useful resource because it taught me how to do the Coleman Slide. I have seen the Coleman Slide in videos but I have never practiced the move. I searched out this video because I wanted to learn how to do the slide. I liked the way this video explained the steps and I would search for other videos by this person in the future.I would recommend this site to other people because the video was very clear.

Two entrepreneurs are making waves by creating skateboards out of fishing nets discarded in the waters off Chile around 640,000 fishing nets clog up the oceans around us and that is only a 1/10th of the garbage. Many many people helped by picking up trash and donating money towards this. they took fishing nets and made them into plastic beeds and were created as a mold for a longboard and they sold out very quickly because these boards if they keep being made it could put a big helpful environmental impact around us!
