Been having problems with my quick release slipping everytime i put any power down on the pedals, the grip on the quick release nut if fine but the frame seams to be smooth so its just not gripping, any ideas for what i can do?

Try a better QR. Roughen up the surfaces where it mounts, Tension it more,

Its not a super lightweight cheapo QR is it?
