@ripstiksick fingers pointing up could break your wrist. hands in a fist is the best option

[ripstiksick]

Girls can pitch better though know boy can wind up like a girl ohh and on this vid don't forget to to go wrist curved and fingers pointing up or u will break them trust me it hurts

@gibsonrockgod

i've never been thrown out sliding head first, you can always slide at an angle and use your hand to touch the base, it's very offective

[boringcats]

@thewarmpie

no

[gibsonrockgod]

I only do this TRYING to get picked off, other then that legs first!

[abo4lyfe]

yeah lmao...

thats what happened to me...

that's why i prefer sliding legs first when stealing and hook slide when going home.

[neekhaiz]
