GENERAL INFORMATION
"Slide" (alternative name: "Slide Baby", "Slide, Slide, Slippery Slide", "Numbers", "Slime yuck", and other similar titles.) is a widely known two partner hand clap game. I don't know when or where "Slide" was first performed in the United States, but judging by how well that game is known in among many African Americans, "Slide" is probably of African American origin*.
*For the record, I'm African American and I don't recall this game from my childhood [in Atlantic City, New Jersey in the 1950s]. I've never learned how to play "Slide", but my daughter recalls playing this game in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the early to mid 1980s.

A HAND CLAP GAME PLAYED WITHOUT CHANTING RHYMING VERSES
Unlike most other hand clap games, "Slide"'s hand clap pattern is performed without the clappers chanting any rhyming verses. Often the rhymers are silent. However, in some performances of this game, both of the clappers or one of the clappers chants the name of the hand clap game and announce the consecutive number sequences that the clappers are performing. Here are three examples of that type of chanting:
Example #1:
From http://www.dance.net/topic/5144224/1/Hu"re: HAND GAMES!!! yaaaa y!" By jazzy_lady
On Sun Jun 18, 2006
"Slide slide slippery slide
1-1 ONE
1-2 1-2 ONE, TWO
1-2-3 1-2-3 ONE, TWO, THREE
1-2-3-4 1-2-3-4 ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR."
****
Example #2
"I played this one before. I'm good at it! slide baby slide baby one, two, three!"
-north_ernlights, February 19 2009, 20:16:30 UTC, http://linguaphiles.livejournal.com/4327510.html“children play... terminological question”
****
Example #3
From http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=351152"What hand-clapping and jumprope rhymes do you remember?"
"Does anyone remember "Slide"?
Sliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide
Baby one, baby two..."
-snip-
Notice that, with the exception of the name "Numbers", the titles for this game are from the games' introductory phrase or, in the case of "Slide Baby", the words that are said in front of each sequential number in the game.
****
GENDER & AGES OF SLIDE PLAYERS
Unlike most hand clap games, Slide is often played by males as well as females from around age seven years throughout adulthood. That adults play "Slide" is documented by various YouTube videos, including the examples found below.
It's my sense that males and adults are more inclined to play hand games such as Slide & hand slapping games such as "Down By The Banks Of The Hanky Panky", "Stella Ella Ola", &"Quack Diddley Oso" because those hand games involve moderate to high levels of hand coordination & timing skills and/or have a mildly competitive element much more than other hand clap games. "Slide" differs from the above mentioned hand slap rhymes in that it isn't an elimination group game & it isn't played by people standing or sitting in a circle.
****
TEMPO INCREASES
Similar to the hand clap rhymes "Lemonade" and (versions of) "High Low Jigalow", the tempo in renditions of many versions of "Slide" increases with each sequential number. Playing the game faster increasing the difficulty of the game. As a blogger wrote about the game Slide:
"ISTR that was the most difficult clapping game to play, it was very fast."
- sparkofcreation, "straightdope: Slide", February 20 2009,

("ISTR"– "I seem to recall [or to remember”)
****
WINNERS, LOSERS, AND SLIDE RECORDS
Persons playing "slide" compete against their partner. In a game of "slide" the person who "messes up" [performs the wrong hand motions or fails to perform any hand motion]** is considered "the loser". The remaining partner is considered the winner. In addition, persons playing Slide compete against their previous "records" of the number that they reached while playing this game. For instance, a person might say "My record [for playing "slide"] is 8" and another person might say "My record [for playing "slide"] is 12."
Status is conferred on people who are good at playing Slide, although to date at least there are no formal slide competitions that I'm aware of. Some adults recall that they were "Slide champions" in their childhood and/or youth.

Pancocojams Editor's Note:
My daughter recalls that she was "good at playing Slide" in the early to mid 1980s. She also shared with me that people who were good at this game were happy to find other people who also were good that game in part because they could have a longer game, because they had a person with whom they could really compete. Another reason why good Slide players are glad to play that game with other players who are confident about their skill level with this game is that playing this game with such players can potentially increase their own personal best [Players can reach a higher number before the game ends].

Explanation #2
..."There was also "Numbers." It was a two person clapping game. It started by clapping one's hands together. Then right to right, then clap, then left to left, then clap again. Next slap the backs of the hands together, then the front, then start again. When you get to the back-front thing again do it twice. When you get to it the third time do it three times and so on. Its' kinda hard to explain without demonstrating it. Anybody know what I'm talking about?"

"SLIDE BABY" MENTIONED IN OTHER HAND CLAP RHYMES
The game of Slide is mentioned as an introduction in certain versions of a few other hand clap rhymes.
Example #1:
From https://linguaphiles.livejournal.com/4327510.html
posted by shamrockergreen, February 19 2009
“I know a song that goes to the claps for "slide" but is repetitive (no escalating number of claps).
The rhymes of the second part are endless. Here is one short version:
“Slide, baby, slide
it's as easy as 1, 2, 3
my mother takes care of me
my daddy watches MTV”
-snip-
Pancocojams Editor Notes:
This example continues with a version of the “ooh ah I want a piece of pie” rhyme.
I believe the "slide baby slide" line in this example is an introductory line with the actual rhyme beginning with "It's as easy as 1, 2, 3". The "usual" introductory line for this rhyme is "A. B.C." (with the number "3" rhyming with the letter "C").
The comment that "the rhymes of the second part are endless" means that there are countless versions of the second rhyme “Ooh ah I wanna piece of pie.
"MTV" is an American television station with a beginning format of showing Pop music videos.
*There's a YouTube video of two college age Black men playing "Slide baby". Unfortunately, because that video includes profanity & other inappropriate language, I've not featured in this post.
A person may fail to perform any hand motion because over time hitting the palms of another person's hand creates a burning sensation. That sensation is evidenced in the line of another hand clap rhyme entitled "Shimmy Shimmy China" - "Don't stop till your hands get hot".
The participants in this Greek Chat internet forum were members of historically Black Greek lettered sororities. My sense is that these women's recollections of Slide and of other "Old School" games [I think "old school" in this post meant games that were played around the late 1980s to the early 1990.]
****
Example #2
A version of the "Bald headed Scallywag" rhyme:
From https://www.lipstickalley.com/threads/black-girl-rhymes-what-was-yours-growing-up.1196979/"Black Girl Rhymes, What Was Yours Growing Up", posted by pwells09
"Bald headed scally wag, ain't got no hair in the back
Slide slide slippery slide, yo momma ain't got no hair on the side

Given that my last name is "Powell", I should mention that "pwells09" isn't me.
Other versions of "Baldheaded Scallywag" are given in that discussion. Some of those versions include profanity.

This is a how to play "Slide." Be sure to listen carefully because it gets tricky, real tricky.

-snip-
The beginning comment "Forget that you are Mexican" refers to the stereotype of Mexican males being macho and therefore disinclined to touch other men. The commenter says that this isn't a sexual hand shake. While I wish those comments weren't on this video, I'm including this video because it helps explain & demonstrate how Slide is played by those men.
Here's my transcription of a comment that was made in that video: "After 1 we're going to do two of each... You keep adding on. After the 2 of each we're going to do 3 of each than 4 of each, than 5 of each.""Each" refers to the hand movement in each set of numbers.
