just went to hampstead heath, found a path full of gravel and all of a sudden i was skidding all over the place! very satisfying, thanks for all the advice people which helped me to get skidding.
skidding on the road is still really tough though.... practice makes perfect though
a couple of questions, are thinner tyres easier to skid with? does higher tyre pressure help?
and what tyres are best for skidding... (don't mind if they don't last ages)?
ps my knees hurt a little :)
