What exactly is Slide Canceling in Modern Warfare II:

Maintaining your maximum movement speed after sliding is referred to as slide cancelling. It does exactly what it says after a tactical dash, it literally cancels your slide so you can use it again, and again, and again. Normally, when a player slides, they lose some of their forward momenta since their character will go in a crouch position. However, players can maintain their speed by using this technique, which enables them to sprint even after using a slide.
