You can grind on pedals, but that's kind of weak. You should just buy a BMX for street/park, it feels a little weird at first, but once you get used to it, it's so much more fun.

the first question is which foot forward are you and what side of the bike you are grinding on

for example i grind on the left side with my left crank forwards so im sliding on the pedal and crank with my front wheel on the rail or what ever you are grinding ........ but evry one does it different
