right, so i want to build some sliding shoes this summer to work on balance. i found some wood i have that slides good on pvc. i have a big pvc pipe from my old hockey net. i can get the wood attached easily on my old shoes. the problem is making the rail. i dont know how to attach my 4ft pvc pipe onto my 2x4x4. i know its small, but if it works good ill probably buy a longer piece of wood and pvc at home depot. any help is appreciated.

soap shoes cost like 10 bucks, but they are gay anyway, just jump on it with skis and put tarp as your landing

Theres this stuff thats like plastic, but when you heat it up you can cut it and mold it into any shape and its real slippery. I dont know what its called though.

put tons of nails into your shoe. nail them from the bottem into your shoe so the head is sticking out the sole. then when you slide you are sliding on metal.

thats a good idea. Make sure the nails are long and you are wearing your shoes when you do it.

yeah use your ski boots, most of them are slippery on the bottom, plus it gives you the feeling of sliding in your ski stuff, because...you are, minus your skis
