Whats the secret?

 

ask redline jimmy.......he's got them like no one i have ever seen

 

he's talking about a powerslide.....

Just come in and lock your rear tire up and countersteer.............. I wouldnt do these too often if you like the way you're bike looks though..I drop 'em all the time

 

You kill the one side of your tire also if you do them too much. They are fun as hell and easy but I try to save the tire as much as I can.

 

whats the secret to not highsiding them? i used to do them , but stopped after a bad highside, now i dont do them anymore in fear of highsiding. is lower better? slower , faster? any tips?

 

Thats not a powerslide, thats just skidding. A powerslide would be gettin the back out around a turn from layin into the throttle.

Infamy, try this: Go straight at about 30-40 mph. Stand up, pull in the clutch and lock up the rear wheel. Now lean to the left and the back should slide out to the right. Take your left foot off the peg to help keep your balance. If the back starts sliding out too quick, turn the bars to the right. If you want the back to slide around farther, turn the bars to the left. If you highside, then the bike wasnt leaned over far enough.

 

thats what I do

 

Slam on the rear brake whip it 180 counter steer and shift your weight come around 180 don't put your foot down, then as soon as you are turned 180 give gas and you will come right out of it the other way

 

Everyone has a different method for the way they ride . Practice , practice , practice , wreck , practice. You'll get it .
