[QUOTE="placelast, post: 89116, member: 22683"] [b]Re: Brake Sliding - Here's a goon's perspective[/b] Musta' been Hawkins; he looks like the master of the technique. I have an old photocopy of him explaining how he does it, w/pix. Send me your snail-mail address & I'll send ya a copy. Reading it over & over help me a little. Certainly practice. I can relate to your struggle, having the same problem. Most of my difficulties stem from proper clutch release, lack brake feel (w/stiff Tech 8s), & the awkward body positions/contortions I do when riding (like a goon). Then again, after 1-1/2 years, I'm still not used to the 2-stroke boost, coming off a 4 banger. On the latter, I found Shane Watts' method of an arc the quickest - brake-sliding a thumper did me no good, but then again, Randy doesn't seem to differentiate between the two: he brake-slides them all w/ease, but is known to be a clutch abuser - I can't see how anyone could go fast in tight trees w/Shane's method. Lol. Gad, you have a way w/words, & describing the things I go thru to make this work.. I suggest U try the technique in an open area, around bushes & the like, where there is room for error.
