Plexiglass

Alrighty, so my dad got his hands on a few nice new sheets of plexiglass at his work and brought them home for me. What i was wondering is how well does it slide? Will it slide like a real box, and will strips of it slide well? I wanna learn spins on boxes, so this is why i'm wondering. Also, do snowskates slide well on it for any of you that have attempted it? I want to learn snowskate spins on plexiglass as well.

Yeah, I def. will predrill and countersink the screw holes, and i may use this big old wooden grate as a structure. Its only like 3 inches high, so it would be nice for learning spins or hopefully snowskating. And im Max from MN for those of you who want to know who i am.
