How to Slide Kick in Fortnite

The latest round of All Sweat Summer Quests has arrived in Fortnite. One such Quests tasks you with successfully slide kicking an opponent. The slide kick is a seldom-used technique, so you might not be familiar with it. Look no further, as we are here to explain how to slide kick in Fortnite.

Slide kicking in Fortnite is a risky maneuver no matter the situation. It requires you to get close, which usually doesn’t end well. However, to slide kick, you must sprint full speed at an opponent and press crouch while running. If done correctly, your character will enter a slide animation. You must have plenty of momentum to properly slide kick, so performing it on a hill is wise to guarantee success.

It’s worth noting that slide kicking your teammates does not count for the challenge. Instead, your best approach is to queue into a Team Rumble match and attempt to close the distance on an opponent.

Although executing the slide kick in Fortnite is straightforward, the tricky part is getting close. That’s why Team Rumble is the optimal game mode. It allows you to respawn, and there are various targets on the opposing team.

Our best suggestion is to deploy your glider and float after respawning. Once you find an opponent that by themselves, you can fly in, get the crouch button ready to slide, and then give it your best shot.

Eventually, with some precision and enough luck, you will slide kick your way into a whopping 25,000 Fortnite XP. Not only will this help you advance through your Season 3 Battle Pass, but also bring you closer to those sweet All Sweat Summer rewards.
