Booksox

simply cut em in half, wrap them around your shoes, and jib away. You can do anything you want in them and slide wonderfully on PVC. Has anyone else tried this? I've been doing it for a while and its mad fun and good practice so give it a try!

Sounds like a good way to test out my new pvc rail while I wait for snow.

if any of you used to play soccer, just put your shin guards under your shoes (hard side down) and try it on pvc, works like a charm

Let's get mad awareness for this! great posts ns,  and one more word of advice, The sox work no whether the PVC is wet or dry, and the non-shiny ones (ex. yankees booksox) work the best.

No, first you must poop into said booksox, then put your foot in it. then walk around for a bit, THEN you can run toward the pvc rail and slide.

im going to have to dig up some of those and do they only work on pvc? another alternative is aggressive skating... similar concept just not nearly as fun.

First off, did you cut them in half?  thats what your supposed to do. and if you did, try booksox other than 3ds or any shiny ones. the best ones i've ever used are the yankees ones.
