'twisty' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'around on trails around ohio' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'around' is an anagram indicator.
'ohio' becomes 'O' (abbreviation for Ohio).
'on'+'trails'='ontrails'
'ontrails' anagrammed gives 'torsinal'.
'torsinal' placed around 'o' is 'TORSIONAL'.

'sliding' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may be part of another bit of the clue.
