how to get crispy skin on wings?

This past weekend I cooked wings. The flavor was great, but I thought the skin was "soft". I would like to have crispy skin.

Here is how I cooked them:

The wings were marinaded in Franks Red Hot for a couple of hours. They were then coated with the sauce from the "Away from Home Buffalo Wings" recipe, except for half I used Frank's Extra Hot and for the other half I used Frank's Wings sauce. They marinaded in that for about an hour and a half.

I then cooked them indirect using a spider and sliding rig. I put the hot wings on the bottom grid at first and swapped half way through. They cooked for a little over an hour at about 315 degrees.

Do I need to go direct for crispy skin? If so, can I still use the sliding rig?

Thanks.

Mike
