Just highsided on a blown ACL/MCL yesterday making my first attempts.:LOL I'll take some pointers as well.

Re: Drifting??
 

how are you hitting your hip? I learned by starting off with my foot on the ground and dragging my foot, think of it as like a crutch to get the lean angles you need and what not. Once you get comfortable with that, you can pick your foot up

Re: Drifting??
 

no im not using my foot im just slideing and breaking loose 1 out of 10 i might get 270 or 360 but not all the time most of the time i just slide out on my left hip

Re: Drifting??
 

but your name is slide wayz?

Re: Drifting??
 

get aggressive be one with the bike and load your tire up with air 38psi to start..
its all in the clutch release and throttle i am getting them but been only just started yesterday with 25psi an was doing alright? A buddy who was doing them same time with 38psi was killing the shit...

I dunno what else to say if you want it bad enough it will happen...

Re: Drifting??
 

yea im only at like 28-32 or so. but i mean i can break loose no problem but i think i dump the clutch a little high on the initail take off lol

Re: Drifting??
 

just stop bein a pussy!!!!

Re: Drifting??
 

don't wait for the tail to whip around when your on the break, just get it to slide for a few feet then /gas/clutch, might be why your low siding, your waiting to long to put power to the wheel

Re: Drifting??
 

+1 w/highstyles, pop that shit a second sooner or go a lil faster and do your slide in longer so you get your angle be4 you nail it

Re: Drifting??
 

The brand and model of tire makes a big difference... for me at least.

Get something hard, like a touring tire and put a bunch of air in it.

I personally don't suggest the foot down thing, cause bad habits are hard to break - but it helps alot of people learn so to each his own.
