how do you slide without slipping out?

I can do a rolling burnout but I cant lock up the rear tire and slide into a leaning position while spinning the back tire right after that. when ever I lock up the rear and it starts to sway back and forth as soon as it gets to far it feels like it could just land right on its side. I dont understand the technique they use for sliding in control and spinning the back tire right after into a circle.

half way through this video he does it a lot when he gets on the second bike so you can understand and see exactly what I'm talking about. also I have never seen a stunt video like the beginning of this one where he rocks the bike into a turn with no hands along with standing on the side and straightening up again. pretty cool.

Re: how do you slide without slipping out?

Honestly I have never done this before and am nowhere near this point in stunting yet...BUT! Thinking about the physics(?) of watching him slide it like that i would assume that with the forward motion of the bike and the counter steer of the front tire; to prevent the bike from dropping on its side is achieved by tapping the front brake to bring the bike back "more" upright when it slides too low... If you watch closely his slides arent 100% smooth (although im sure its possible with a very well trained right hand) and the bike kinda tips up and down through the slide.

Once again ive never done it before and I may be completely wrong, but it kinda makes sense to me... Try it out some time and see what happens? Sorry if you drop your bike. Maybe its purely throttle control? I would guess you dont need the back brake much seeing as how he did it sitting on his handle bars.
